Where you have commas, those should actually be on separate lines that each end with semicolons.

Incorrect:
max = b, min = a;

Correct:

2
 
max = b;
min = a;

You need to put code tags around your code so we can comment on line numbers.

Here is what you need to figure out

    A               B               C
a<b   a>b      b<a  b>a      c<a  c>a
a<c   a>c       b<c  b>c       c<b  c>b

A B C
A C B
B A C
B C A
C A B
C B A

Right now your formula doesn't work but your code won't compile, so first get it to compile. You only need a } at the end.

Then you need to add some output so you can see if your formula is good.

you do not need
if(b<a)
you found that out with
if(b>a).

You can use

if ((a<b) && (b<c))
{
   cout << "ABC" << endl;
}
else
if ((a<b) && (b>c))
{
   cout << "ACB" << endl;
}
else
{
   cout << "Must be something else" << endl;
}

MrHutch (1822)
Same as always; max - min.
SamuelAdams (1535)
cout << " Diff " << (max-min) << endl;
