Program To Find The NTH Largest Number in The Array Using Command Line Arguments

The document is a Java program that finds the Nth largest number in an array using command line arguments. It takes the desired Nth value as a command line argument, stores sample data in an array, iterates through the array to find the maximum values and store their indexes, and prints out the Nth largest value. It handles exceptions if the Nth value is out of bounds of the array length.
