Answer:
public static int maxMagnitude(int a, int b){
int max;
if (a>b){
max = a;
}
else{
max = b;
}
return max;
}
The complete program calling the method is given in the explanation section
Explanation:
import java.util.Scanner;
public class ANot {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.println("Please Enter two numbers");
int num1= in.nextInt();
int num2 = in.nextInt();
System.out.println("The largest magnitude number is: "+maxMagnitude(num1,num2));
}
public static int maxMagnitude(int a, int b){
int max;
if (a>b){
max = a;
}
else{
max = b;
}
return max;
}
}
The maxMagnitude() method uses if/else statement to compare two ints and return the larger one
