Question 27

Given three numbers A, B and C, write a program to write their values in an ascending order. For example, if A = 12, B = 10, and C = 15, your program should print out:

Smallest number = 10
Next higher number = 12
Highest number = 15

Solution
a = int(input("Enter first number: "))
b = int(input("Enter second number: "))
c = int(input("Enter third number: "))

if a < b and a < c :
    small = a
    if b < c :
        middle = b
        large = c
    else :
        middle = c
        large = b
elif b < a and b < c :
    small = b
    if a < c :
        middle = a
        large = c
    else :
        middle = c
        large = a
else :
    small = c
    if a < b :
        middle = a
        large = b
    else :
        middle = b
        large = a


print("Smallest number =", small)
print("Next higher number =", middle)
print("Highest number =", large)
Output
Enter first number: 10
Enter second number: 5
Enter third number: 15
Smallest number = 5
Next higher number = 10
Highest number = 15
Answer

a
=
int
(
input
(
"Enter first number: "
))
b
=
int
(
input
(
"Enter second number: "
))
c
=
int
(
input
(
"Enter third number: "
))
if
a
<
b
and
a
<
c
:
small
=
a
if
b
<
c
:
middle
=
b
large
=
c
else
:
middle
=
c
large
=
b
elif
b
<
a
and
b
<
c
:
small
=
b
if
a
<
c
:

=
a
large
=

=
c
large
=
a
else
:

=
c
if
a
<
b
:
middle
=
a
large
=
b
else
:
middle
=

print
(
"Smallest number ="
,
small
)
print
(
"Next higher number ="
,
middle
)
print
(
"Highest number ="
,
large
)
Output
Enter first number: 10
Enter second number: 5
Enter third number: 15
Smallest number = 5
Next higher number = 10
Highest number = 15
