    A small idea to find whether greater or smaller.

    if (x/y)
    Printf ("X is greater")
    else
    Printf("y is greater")


    This is a small idea ,i dont know how to check for equal case.

    *thinking*

    if(x/y==1)
    {
    printf("x=y");
    else
    {
    if(x/y==0)
    printf("y is greater");
    else
    printf("x is greater");
    }
    }
