..........
if (num1<=num2)
cin >> least;
cout << "Least Integer is: ";

if (num1<=num3)
cin >> least;
cout << "Least Integer is: ";

if (num2<=num3)
cin >> least;
cout << "Least Integer is: ";

if (num2<=num1)
cin >> least;
cout << "Least Integer is: ";

if (num3<=num1)
cin >> least;
cout << "Least Integer is: ";

if (num3<=num2)
cin >> least;
cout << "Least Integer is: ";


if (num1>=num2)
cin >> largest;
cout << "Largest Integer is: ";

if (num1>=num3)
cin >> largest;
cout << "Largest Integer is: ";

if (num2<=num3)
cin >> largest;
cout << "Largest Integer is: ";

if (num2<=num1)
cin >> largest;
cout << "Largest Integer is: ";

if (num3<=num1)
cin >> largest;
cout << "Largest Integer is: ";

if (num3<=num2)
cin >> largest;
cout << "Largest Integer is: ";

return 0;
}

i am trying to get the program to find the highest and lowest of the 3 numbers.. but when i run it its not doing so- i have 0 errors and 0 warnings

I am not sure about what are you trying to do in your code but This is something I would have done...

CODE


cout<<"Enter Number 1 : ";
cin>>number1;
cout<<"Enter Number 2 : ";
cin>>number2;
cout<<"Enter Number 3 : ";
cin>>number3;

if(number1>=number2)
{
  if(number1>=number3)
  {
    cout<<"Largest Number Is : "<<number1;
    if(number2<=number3)
      cout<<"Smallest Number Is : "<<number2;
    else
      cout<<"Smallest Number Is : "<<number3;
  }
  else
  {
    cout<<"Largest Number Is : "<<number3;
    cout<<"Smallest Number Is : "<<number2;
  }
}
else
{
  if(number2>=number3)
  {
    cout<<"Largest Number Is : "<<number2;
    if(number1<=number3)
      cout<<"Smallest Number Is : "<<number1;
    else
      cout<<"Smallest Number Is : "<<number3;
  }
  else
  {
    cout<<"Largest Number Is : "<<number3;
    cout<<"Smallest Number Is : "<<number1;
  }
}




I hope this will help you.

I guess your having more of a logical error here. Your compiler will detect mainly syntax errors. Try this:
CODE

if(num1<num2 && num1<num3)
{
    /*num1 is smallest*/
}

Hope you get it. Try the rest of it yourself. It should be easy. You'll need a few more similar 'if' statement blocks.

EDIT: mmmm. I didn't realise this before. I was too slow for AmitTheInfinity. biggrin.gif

why are you reading in least after the if statement???
but Louisda16th is right smile.gif and as he said using similar logic you'll get the program to be right
