Java Exercises: Accepts two integer values from the user and return the larger values
Java Basic: Exercise-63 with Solution
Write a Java program that accepts two integer values from the user and return the larger values. However if the two values are the same, return 0 and return the smaller value if the two values have the same remainder when divided by 6.
Test Data:
Input the first number : 12
Input the second number: 13
Result: 13
Input the first number : 12
Input the second number: 12
Result: 0
Input the first number : 6
Input the second number: 18
Result: 6
Sample Solution:
Java Code:
import java.util.*;
public class Exercise63 {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
System.out.print("Input the first number : ");
int a = in.nextInt();
System.out.print("Input the second number: ");
int b = in.nextInt();
System.out.println("Result: "+result(a, b));
}
public static int result(int x, int y)
{
if(x == y)
return 0;
if(x % 6 == y % 6)
return (x < y) ? x : y;
return (x > y) ? x : y;
}
}
Sample Output:
Input the first number : 12 Input the second number: 13 Result: 13
