I want to make a program in which if I input A it should print that its a capital letter and if i input small a it should display small character , how can i write this?and also a program which inputs 4-5 numbers and prints the highest number and the lowest number?so any help ?

Because a character is represented internally as an integer, you can test whether it is between 'a' and 'z' or between 'A' and 'Z'.

You have to go through the inputs and keep track of the current low/high number.

If you show us your code, we can help you further.

Take a stab at it first.

is this correct ?

#include<conio.h>
#include<iostream.h>
#include<ctype.h>
void main()
{
char alphabet;
clrscr();
cout<<"\n Enter Alphabet : ";
cin>>alphabet;
if(alphabet==toupper(alphabet))
cout<<"\n It is CAPITAL";
else if(alphabet==tolower(alphabet))
cout<<"\n It is SMALL ";
getch();
}

#include<conio.h>

#include<iostream.h>

#include<ctype.h>

int main()

{

char alphabet;


cout<<"\n Enter Alphabet : ";

cin>>alphabet;

if(alphabet==toupper(alphabet))

cout<<"\n It is CAPITAL";

else if(alphabet==tolower(alphabet))

cout<<"\n It is SMALL ";

return 0;

}

yes its true with a small fix

Are you stuck learning on the ancient Turbo C++, ahmed?

Wow this looks familiar...

I posted this method in his previous thread and was shot down for it. What's the difference in this case?

I hadn't gotten around to it yet?

I got this program working , yup i am using turbo C++ trying to get on visual c++ 6.0 , anyways how can i compare 4-5 numbers and get the largest and smallest?

[dargueta]

Use a for loop with two variables, one to hold the smallest, and one to hold the largest. Compare the input to them; if the input is smaller than the smallest, change the variable containing the smallest. If the input is larger than the largest, change the variable containing the largest.
