Java program to Largest number among three numbers


Comparing three integer variables is one of the simplest programs you can write at ease.

  •  Take two integer variables, say A, B& C
  •  Assign values to variables
  •  If A is greater than B & C, Display A is the largest value
  •  If B is greater than A & C, Display B is the largest value
  •  If C is greater than A & B, Display A is the largest value
  •  Otherwise, Display A, B & C are not unique values

Example

import java.util.Scanner;
public class LargestOfThreeNumbers {
   public static void main(String args[]){
      Scanner sc =new Scanner(System.in);
      System.out.println("Enter 1st number :");
      int a = sc.nextInt();
      System.out.println("Enter 2nd number :");
      int b = sc.nextInt();
      System.out.println("Enter 3rd number :");
      int c = sc.nextInt();

      if ( a > b && a > c ){
         System.out.println("Largest number is ::"+ a);
      }else if ( b > a && b > c ){
         System.out.println("Largest number is ::"+ b);
      }else if ( c > a && c > b ){
         System.out.println("Largest number is ::"+ c);
      }else{
         System.out.println("Cnnot validate");
      }
   }
}

Output

Enter 1st number :
2
Enter 2nd number :
66
Enter 3rd number :
8
Largest number is ::66
