scanf("%d%d%d",&a,&b,&c);
if(a>b)

Here: cpp #include <stdio.h> int main () // main should always return int!!! { int a,b,c; printf ("Enter three integers. . .\n"); scanf ("%d%d%d",&a,&b,&c); if (a > b && a > c) printf ("a is the largest"); else if (b > a && b > c) printf ("b is the largest"); else printf ("c is the largest"); return 0; } Hope this helps
