class largesmall {

public static void main(String args[]) {
    Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
     
    System.out.println("Please enter first number :");
    int first = scanner.nextInt();  
    System.out.println("Please enter second number :");
    int second = scanner.nextInt();
    System.out.println("Please enter third number :");
    int third = scanner.nextInt();
    
    int largest = largest(first, second, third);
    int smallest = smallest(first, second, third);
    
    System.out.printf("largest of three numbers %d, %d, and %d is : %d %n", first, second, third, largest);
    System.out.printf("smallest of three numbers %d, %d, and %d is : %d %n", first, second, third, smallest);
    }

    public static int largest(int first, int second, int third) { 
        int max = first;
        if (second > max)
        { 
            max = second;
        }
        if (third > max)
        {
            max = third;
        }
    return max; 
    }

    public static int smallest(int first, int second, int third) {
        int min = first;
        if (second < min)
        {
            min = second; 
            
        } 
        if (third < min)
        {
            min = third; 
            
        }
    return min;
    }
}
