Biggest of Two Numbers: C
Source Code: Biggest of Two Numbers using ternary operator: C
#include < stdio.h > int main() { int a, b, big; printf("Enter 2 numbers\n"); scanf("%d%d", &a, &b); (a > b) ? (big = a) : (big = b); printf("Biggest of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, big); return 0; }
Output 1:
Enter 2 numbers
5
6
Biggest of 5 and 6 is 6
Output 2:
Enter 2 numbers
40
15
Biggest of 40 and 15 is 40
#include < stdio.h > int main() { int a, b, big; printf("Enter 2 numbers\n"); scanf("%d%d", &a, &b); big = (a > b) ? (a) : (b); printf("Biggest of %d and %d is %d\n", a, b, big); return 0; }
Output 1:
Enter 2 numbers
500
900
Biggest of 500 and 900 is 900
In above source code, if a is bigger than b, then value of a is returned and stored in variable big orelse value of variable b is stored in variable big.
General Form of Ternary Operator
(expression_1) ? (expression_2) : (expression_3);
expression_1 is a comparison/conditional argument. expression_2 is executed/returned if expression_1 results in true, expression_3 gets executed/returned if expression_1 is false.
