Java program to find the largest of three numbers

In this article we will learn to implement a Java program to find the largest of three numbers. A Java program is provided below which reads three numbers from the user and prints the largest number among them.

Program is as follows:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Driver
{	
	public static void main(String[] args)
	{
		Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
		System.out.println("Enter three numbers: ");
		int a = input.nextInt();
		int b = input.nextInt();
		int c = input.nextInt();
		if(a > b && a > c)
			System.out.println(a + " is largest");
		else if(b > c)
			System.out.println(b + " is largest");
		else
			System.out.println(c + " is largest");
		input.close();
	}
}

Input and output for the above program is as follows:

Enter three numbers: 
10 30 20
30 is largest
