    That's nice homework - why not try it yourself first?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Oh come on - surely you can write it for two numbers, even if the number of 'if' statements used isn't the minimum.

    What happens if we give you a 1-line piece of magic, then your tutor asks you to explain it to the rest of the class?

    There are only 6 possible outcomes - how can you possibly have 2 pages of code.

    Consider
    if ( a > b && a > c )
    How many permutations of b and c are left to resolve?
