To do: Comparing the given two integers using the if conditional selection C syntax for greater than, less than or equal
To show: How to use the if statement for simple selection in C programming for greater than, less than or equal
// A simple if statement usage
#include <stdio.h>
int main (void)
{
int x, y;
// Input the two values to be tested
printf("\nInput an integer value for x: ");
// read and store those inputs
/* scanf("%d", &x); */
scanf_s("%d", &x, 1);
printf("Input an integer value for y: ");
/* scanf("%d", &y); */
scanf_s("%d", &y, 1);
// Test values and print result
if (x == y)
{
printf("\nx is equal to y");
}
if (x > y)
{
printf("\nx is greater than y");
}
if (x < y)
{
printf("\nx is smaller than y");
}
printf("\n\n");
return 0;
}
Output examples:
Input an integer value for x: 100
Input an integer value for y: 99
x is greater than y

Input an integer value for x: 45
Input an integer value for y: 70
x is smaller than y
Press any key to continue . . .
Input an integer value for x: 77
Input an integer value for y: 77
x is equal to y
