Write a c++ function min() that has two integer parameters first,and second and it returns the smallest of the two.

Question

Please help me to solve this!!! I

Answer 1

1) You have to create a function "min" and not main
2) You have to use parentesis in construct like if as:
if(condition){
statements
} else {
other statements
}

3) in c++ you have to declare variable types in functions parameters also like

int min(int first, int second)....

Sincerally i see much very basic errors then i suggest to read your learning resource

Answer 2

#include<iostream>

using namespace std ;

int min(int first , int second )
{
return (a<b ? a:b ) ;
}

int main()
{
int a, b ;
int s_no ; // small_number
cout << "Enter two number " ;
cin >> a>> b ;
s_no = min(a,b) ;

cout << "Small number = " << s_no ;

return 0 ;
}

Answer 3

Where is your try? Post it so we can discuss on it...

Answer 4

int min(int first, int second)
{
return first<second ? first : second;
}

Answer 5

int min(int a, int b){
if(a<b){
return a;
}
else{
return b;
}
}

Answer 6

int main(first, second){
if first>second;
return second;
else
return first
}

Answer 7

Farnaz.A `cin >> a,b >> endl` ? This is so wrong. There's no comma & endl in std::cin. Plus, don't take input from functions, but rather do Min(int a, int b){...}
Then after main:
int x, y;
std::cin >> x >> y;
Min(x,y);
And, you can make ternary return statement, e.g `return a > b ? a : b;`. Check Martin Taylor 's code about them.

Answer 8

This example is good to tell people why they should avoid <bits/stdc++.h> & using namespace std;
Well because bits will call the <algorithm> library & namespace will call `std::min` thus resulting in an error.

Answer 9

same as Haider Ali Waris
int min(int first, int second) {
return (first<second ? first:second);
}
I think best the above code☺
