How can I sort three numbers in decreasing order?

Question

The user is gonna give me values to three variables: A, B C.
But there's a problem... I want A to be the largest number, B the second largest and C the smallest. But what if the user types 3 4 5 or 4 5 3 instead of 5 4 3? I want the program to reorganize the numbers in decreasing order, so if the user types 3 4 5, the program will make A be 5, 4 be B and 3 be C, regardless of the original order.
I want the solution using c++. Please, help me :)

Answer 1

You can write some simple statements to check the values and rearrange before you move into the core part of your program.
ex:
if(A<B)
{
int temp = A;
A = B;
B = temp;
}

if(A<C)
{
temp = A;
A = C;
C = temp;
}

if(B<C)
{
temp = B;
B = C;
C = temp;
}

Answer 4

its just a temporary integer variable to store the original value of A (or B) so you can get your values reassigned in the order you want them in. you can call it whatever you want. temp, t, heythere
