Sample Solution:-

C# Sharp Code:

using System; // Import the System namespace which contains fundamental types and base classes
using System.Linq; // Import the LINQ namespace for LINQ functionality

namespace exercises // Define a namespace called 'exercises'
{
    class Program // Define a class named 'Program'
    {
        static void Main(string[] args) // The entry point of the program
        {
            // Output the result of test function with different sets of three integers as arguments
            Console.WriteLine(test(4, 5, 7)); // Test with integers 4, 5, and 7
            Console.WriteLine(test(7, 4, 12)); // Test with integers 7, 4, and 12
            Console.WriteLine(test(10, 10, 12)); // Test with integers 10, 10, and 12
            Console.WriteLine(test(12, 12, 18)); // Test with integers 12, 12, and 18
            Console.ReadLine(); // Wait for user input before closing the console window
        }

        // Function definition of test function that takes three integers 'x', 'y', and 'z' and returns an integer
        public static int test(int x, int y, int z)
        {
            if (x == y && y == z) return 0; // If all three integers are equal, return 0
            if (x == y) return z; // If 'x' and 'y' are equal, return 'z'
            if (x == z) return y; // If 'x' and 'z' are equal, return 'y'
            if (y == z) return x; // If 'y' and 'z' are equal, return 'x'
            return x + y + z; // If none of the above conditions match, return the sum of 'x', 'y', and 'z'
        }
    }
}

Sample Output:

16
23
12
18

Previous: Write a C# Sharp program to compute the sum of two given non-negative integers x and y as long as the sum has the same number of digits as x. If the sum has more digits than x then return x without y.
Next: Write a C# Sharp program to compute the sum of the three integers. If one of the values is 13 then do not count it and its  right towards the sum.
