C++ Exercises: Check two given integers and return the value whichever value is nearest to 13 without going over

C++ Basic Algorithm: Exercise-55 with Solution

Write a C++ program to check two integers and return the value nearest to 13 without crossing over. Return 0 if both numbers go over.

Sample Solution:

C++ Code :

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// Class Solution contains a function to manipulate numbers
class Solution
{
public:
    // Function 'test' takes three integers (x, y, z) as parameters
    int test(int x, int y, int z)
    {
        return fix_num(x) + fix_num(y) + fix_num(z); // Returns the sum after applying fix_num to each number
    }

    // Function 'fix_num' takes an integer 'n' as a parameter and processes it
    int fix_num(int n)
    {
        // Checks if 'n' falls within certain ranges and replaces it with 0 if it does
        return (n < 13 && n > 9) || (n > 17 && n < 21) ? 0 : n;
    }
};

int main() 
{
    // Creating an instance of the Solution class
    Solution *solution = new Solution();

    // Testing the 'test' function with different sets of numbers
    cout << solution->test(4, 5, 7) << endl;
    cout << solution->test(7, 4, 12) << endl; 
    cout << solution->test(10, 13, 12) << endl;
    cout << solution->test(17, 12, 18) << endl;

    return 0;    
}

Sample Output:

16
11
13
17

Previous: Write a C++ program to compute the sum of the three given integers. However, if any of the values is in the range 10..20 inclusive then that value counts as 0, except 13 and 17.
Next: Write a C++ program to check three given integers (small, medium and large) and return true if the difference between small and medium and the difference between medium and large is same.
