GREATEST OF 3 NUMBERS

Greatest of 3 numbers #include < stdio.h > void main() { int a,b,c; printf("enter any three numbers:\n"); scanf("%d%d%d",&a, &b, &c); if(a>b&&a>c) /*if a is greater than b & c*/ printf("greatest number is: %d",a); else if(b>c) /*if not a then if b is greater than c*/ printf("greatest number is: %d",b); else /*if a & b are not greater*/ printf("greatest number is: %d",c); }

SWAPPING TWO NUMBERS

Swapping two numbers #include < stdio.h > int main() {   int x, y, temp;   printf("Enter the value of x and y\n");   scanf("%d%d", &x, &y);   printf("Before Swapping\nx = %d\ny = %d\n",x,y);   temp = x;   x = y;   y = temp; /*using temp to swap storing x to temp and y to x then moving temp to y*/   printf("After Swapping\nx = %d\ny = %d\n",x,y);   return 0; }
