Question

2.7 Code Practice: Question 1

Answer 1

Answer:

a = input("Enter a number: ")

b = input("Enter a number: ")

c = input("Enter a number: ")

print("Largest: " + max( a, b, c ))

Explanation:

The only problem with this one is that if 3 negative integers are entered, it isn't able to find the "largest" one. It will give you an 86%, but I can't figure out how to fix it to a 100%.

Answer 2

Answer:

You didn't specify the programming language

I'll answer using Python

nums = []

for i in range(1,4):

     inp = int(input("User Input: "))

     nums.append(inp)

nums.sort()

print(nums[-1])

Explanation:

I made use of list in answering this question.

Start by declaring an empty list

nums = []

Use iteration to enter the list elements

for i in range(1,4):

     inp = int(input("User Input: "))

     nums.append(inp)

Sort the list

nums.sort()

Then print the element on the last index

print(nums[-1])
