Question

Preserving the Gene Pool

by CodeChum Admin

In order to make sure that the future generations will grow into great beings, we must make sure that the gene pool consists of the best genes. In order to do that, we must compare genes from each other and find out which one is the best!

Instructions:

In the code editor, you are provided with a main() function that asks the user for 4 integer inputs and passes these to the getBest() function call.

Your task is to declare and define this getBest() function which has the following details:

Return type - int

Name - getBest

Parameters - 4 integers

Description - returns the highest integer passed

DO NOT EDIT ANYTHING IN THE MAIN

Input

1. First integer

2. Second integer

3. Third integer

4. Fourth integer

Output

Enter·a:·10

Enter·b:·3

Enter·c:·15

Enter·d:·14

Highest·integer·=·15

Answer 1

#include<iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;


int  getBest(int a,int b,int c,int d){
	int highest=a;
	if(b>highest){
		highest=b;
	}
	if(c>highest){
		highest=c;
	}
	
	if(d>highest){
		highest=d;
	}
	
	return highest; 
}


int main()
{
	int a,b,c,d;
	
	cout<<"Enter a: ";
	cin>>a;
	cout<<"Enter b: ";
	cin>>b;
	cout<<"Enter c: ";
	cin>>c;
	cout<<"Enter d: ";
	cin>>d;
	cout<<"Highest integer = "<<getBest(a,b,c,d)<<"\n\n";
	
	
	system("pause");
	return 0;
}
