Implementation details:

Using if-else-if:

SOURCE CODE

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
int A, B, C; //declaring input variables

printf("Enter the value of first number"); //taking input for 1st

number scanf("%d", &A);

printf("Enter the value of second number"); //taking input for 2nd

number scanf("%d", &B);

printf("Enter the value of third number"); //taking input for 3rd

number scanf("%d", &C);

if(A>B)
{
if(A>C)
{
printf("Largest Number is %d",A);
}

else
{
printf("Largest Number is %d",C);
}
}

else
{
if(B>C)
{
printf("Largest Number is %d",B);
}

else
{
printf("Largest Number is %d",C);
}
}

return(0);

Using ternary operator:

SOURCE CODE

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
int n1, n2, n3; //declaring input variables

printf("Enter the value of first number"); //taking input for base

1 scanf("%d", &n1);

printf("Enter the value of second number"); //taking input for base

2 scanf("%d", &n2);

printf("Enter the value of third number");

scanf("%d", &n3);

printf("Largest number is %d", n4);

return(0);

Conclusion:

In this experiment, the use of ternary operators and if-else-if statement was learnt.
Ternary operators are a shorter and more efficient method of implementing decision
making in many cases as compared to if-else-if statement. They also have a shorter
syntax.

Post Lab Descriptive Questions

1. Explain bitwise operators with examples

2. Write a code snippet to perform left shifting of bits by some positions 3.
Write associative rules and precedence table of various operators 4. What
are different storage class specifiers in C?

A1. Bitwise Operators are used for manipulating data at the bit level, also called bit level
programming. Bitwise operates on one or more bit patterns or binary numerals at the level of
their individual bits.

A2. Given below is a snippet to shift bits by 2 positions:

int a = 5;
a<<=2;

print(“Shifted number is %d” a);
