See a problem in else if statement

Dangling else problem

Image
Hello, This problem comes when we use else if statement and do some mistake more describe is given below......... Dangling else problem: One of the major problem with nested if is dangling else problem. The problem arises when both outer if statement inner if statement might pair with common else statement. Thus the compiler is not able to judge to pair the else with which statement. The solution to this problem is given by the compiler that it pairs else with the recent if thus sometimes giving wrong result.                                           Hence the programmer should put early bracket wherever required. This post is may very short because my only aim was to describe this problem. Thank you, Keep supporting.............

Variadic functions in C

Variadic functions are functions which take a variable number of arguments. In C programming, a variadic function will contribute to the flexibility of the program that you are developing.

The declaration of a variadic function starts with the declaration of at least one named variable, and uses an ellipsis as the last parameter, e.g.

int printf(const char* format, ...);

In this problem, you will implement three variadic functions named  and  to calculate sums, minima, maxima of a variable number of arguments. The first argument passed to the variadic function is the count of the number of arguments, which is followed by the arguments themselves.

Input Format

  • The first line of the input consists of an integer .
  • Each test case tests the logic of your code by sending a test implementation of 3, 5 and 10 elements respectively.
  • You can test your code against sample/custom input.
  • The error log prints the parameters which are passed to the test implementation. It also prints the sum, minimum element and maximum element corresponding to your code.

Constraints


 .

Output Format

"Correct Answer" is printed corresponding to each correct execution of a test implementation."Wrong Answer" is printed otherwise.
