Understanding Largest Among 3

This program uses nested if-else statements to compare three numbers. We check each number against the other two using logical AND (&&) operator. The number that is greater than or equal to both others is the largest.

Note: To write and run C++ programs, you need to set up the local environment on your computer. Refer to the complete article Setting up C++ Development Environment. If you do not want to set up the local environment on your computer, you can also use online IDE to write and run your C++ programs.
