This method compares three numbers and then returns the largest one to the main program.
My Code
public class Greatest {
public static int greatest(int number1, int number2, int number3) {
if ((number1 > number2) && (number1 > number3)) {
return number1;
} else if (number2 > number3) {
return number2;
} else {
return number3;
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int result = greatest(2, 7, 3);
System.out.println("Greatest: " + result);
}
}Model Code
public class Greatest {
public static int greatest(int number1, int number2, int number3) {
int greatest = number1;
if (number2 > greatest) {
greatest = number2;
}
if (number3 > greatest) {
greatest = number3;
}
return greatest;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
int result = greatest(2, 7, 3);
System.out.println("Greatest: " + result);
}
}
Comments
The model solution is quite different from mine and I have to say nicer although mine has less lines, theirs is easier to read.
