#include <iostream>

{
int n,smallest;

cin >> n;

if (n >= 0 && n < smallest)
smallest=n;
}
cout << "Smallest = " << smallest << endl;
getch();
return 0;
}

[awais rana]

this program for smallest number and i also want to find 2nd smallest ...for this what will be the condition.....plz plz plz help this time

[Chriscpp]

Did you do it by yourself?

[coder777]

you need another variable like n let's say n1. the smallest goes still to n. if it's greater than n but smaller than n1 it goes to n1

[awais rana]

chriscpp.......i do it with own effort

[awais rana]

coder777........you mean i write another int in this programm

[coder777]

Yes

[awais rana]

i also add second variable but when i run it he telled about only smallest
and at second smallest he give ans zero the number which i inialized the variable

[coder777]

Ok, sorry. I see that I confused you.

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int n,smallest,smallest2;
cout << "Enter A Number :" << endl;
cin >> n;
smallest=n;
smallest2=n; // ok
while (n >= 0)
{
cout << "Enter A Number :" << endl;
cin >> n;
if (n >= 0)
{
if(n < smallest)
smallest=n;
else if(n < smallest2))
smallest2 = n;
}
}
cout << "Smallest = " << smallest << endl;
cout << "2nd Smallest = " << smallest2 << endl;
getch();
return 0;
} 

[EDIT]forgot to initialize smallest2

[awais rana]

coder77.......which code you write also gave error.......error is that smallest and smallest2 values are same

[awais rana]

coder77....plz reply

[BitRat]

Sounds like your trying to:

- Get two numbers
- Find out which one is smaller
- Report the smaller and logically the bigger one.

Is this correct?

[awais rana]

yes.....correct

[dukhi x]

whenever u'll enter smaller number than previously stored in smallest that means previous value in smallest is 2nd smallest number.

if(n < smallest)
{
smallest2=smallest;
smallest=n;
}
else if(n < smallest2))
smallest2 = n;
}

[awais rana]

dukhi X.......isko solve kesay kro

[awais rana]

friend............plz solution bta do
below is code....what is problem in code

[awais rana]

#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int n,smallest,smallest2;
cout << "Enter A Number :" << endl;
cin >> n;
smallest=n;
smallest2=n; // ok
while (n >= 0)
{
cout << "Enter A Number :" << endl;
cin >> n;
if (n >= 0)
{
if(n < smallest)
smallest=n;
else if(n < smallest2))
smallest2 = n;
}
}
cout << "Smallest = " << smallest << endl;
cout << "2nd Smallest = " << smallest2 << endl;
getch();
return 0;
}

[dukhi x]

delete line 17 to line 20 from coder777s code and write these lines there.

if(n < smallest)
{
smallest2=smallest;
smallest=n;
}
else if(n < smallest2))
smallest2 = n;
}

syntax error in you code:

else if(n < smallest2)) // you are using )) 2 parantheses to close.error

[awais rana]

dost......smallest and smallest2 values same ati han

[awais rana]

yar......ya work nhen kerta.....6,5 errors atay han.....dukhi x
