I want a program using if condition to find big number

[praveenkumar450]

I want a c program to find biggest number from three given numbers
using " if " condition

 

[cool.man]

suppose you have three nos
a=9 b=10 c=11 then

if(a>b)
{
  if(a>c)
  {
    A is bigger
  }
  else
  {
    C is bigger
  }
}
else if(b>a)
{
 if(b>c)
 {
  b is bigger
 }
 else
 {
  C is bigger
 }
}

 

[betwixt]

bignumber = 0;
if(a > bignumber) bignumber = a;
if(b >= bignumber) bignumber = b;
if(c >= bignumber) bignumber = c;

leaves the biggest of a,b and c in bignumber. It also caters for any of the numbers being equal and it uses one less compare instruction.
If you want to expand it to more numbers, put them in an array and loop through them using the same method.
