C Program To Find Largest Of 5 Numbers Using if-else

In this tutorial, we are going to see how to write a C program to find the largest of 5 numbers using if-else. In the following example, we ask the user to enter 5 numbers using scanf function, and then we consider the first input as the maximum. Then we compare it with other inputs.
 

 
 

C Program To Find Largest Of 5 Numbers Using if-else

#include <stdio.h>

int main()
{
    int a,b,c,d,e;
	
    printf("Enter 1st number: ");
    scanf("%d",&a);

    printf("Enter 2nd number: ");
    scanf("%d",&b);
	
    printf("Enter 3th number: ");
    scanf("%d",&c);
	
    printf("Enter 4th number: ");
    scanf("%d",&d);

    printf("Enter 5th number: ");
    scanf("%d",&e);
	
    int max = a;
	
    if (b > max) max = b;
    if (c > max) max = c;
    if (d > max) max = d;
    if (e > max) max = e;

    printf("\nMax is %d", max);
	
    return 0;
}

Output:

Enter 1st number: 5
Enter 2nd number: 12
Enter 3th number: 4
Enter 4th number: 6
Enter 5th number: 7

Max is 12
