Check Equal Differences in Three Integers

Write a C# Sharp program to compare three integers (small, medium, and large) and return true if the difference between small and medium and the difference between medium and large is the same.

Sample Solution:-

C# Sharp Code:

using System; // Import the System namespace which contains fundamental types and base classes
using System.Collections.Generic; // Import the System.Collections.Generic namespace for collections
using System.Linq; // Import the LINQ namespace for LINQ functionality
using System.Text; // Import the System.Text namespace for string manipulation
using System.Threading.Tasks; // Import the System.Threading.Tasks namespace for asynchronous operations

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 three integers as arguments
            Console.WriteLine(test(4, 5, 6)); // Test with integers 4, 5, and 6
            Console.WriteLine(test(7, 12, 13)); // Test with integers 7, 12, and 13
            Console.WriteLine(test(-1, 0, 1)); // Test with integers -1, 0, and 1
            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 a boolean value
        public static bool test(int x, int y, int z)
        {
            // Conditions to check the arithmetic sequence property between the three integers
            if (x > y && x > z && y > z) return x - y == y - z; // Check if x > y > z
            if (x > y && x > z && z > y) return x - z == z - y; // Check if x > z > y
            if (y > x && y > z && x > z) return y - x == x - z; // Check if y > x > z
            if (y > x && y > z && z > x) return y - z == z - x; // Check if y > z > x
            if (z > x && z > y && x > y) return z - x == x - y; // Check if z > x > y
            return z - y == y - x; // If none of the above conditions match, check if z > y > x
        }
    }
}

Sample Output:

True
False
True
