   Hello, surprisingly, the exercise was a small challenge; because the rules were to ONLY use the programming skills I learned within chapter 2! I found myself using more advanced methods. I flipped through that entire chapter about 10 times; just to make sure I could use a certain command! LOL… So solving the problem was not a challenge. But creating the program using only what we have learned from chapter 2 was a slight challenge. It’s easy to get carried away.

   Here’s my source code:

   import java.util.Scanner;

   public class HighLowInteger {

   public static void main(String[] args) {

   //this allows the console to receive input
   Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);

   //this identifies the variables
   int Number1;
   int Number2;
   int Number3;
   int Number4;
   int Number5;
   int LargeNumber;
   int SmallNumber;

   //introduction and begin program
   System.out.print(”Welcome to the High-Low # program!\nEnter 5 numbers of your choice,\nand I will tell you what the highest\nand lowest numbers were.\n\nPlease enter your first number:”);
   Number1 = input.nextInt();

   System.out.print(”Enter your second number:”);
   Number2 = input.nextInt();

   System.out.print(”Enter your third number:”);
   Number3 = input.nextInt();

   System.out.print(”Enter your fourth number:”);
   Number4 = input.nextInt();

   System.out.print(”Enter your fifth number:”);
   Number5 = input.nextInt();

   //this calculates the largest number
   LargeNumber = Number1;

   if (Number1 > LargeNumber)
   LargeNumber = Number1;

   if (Number2 > LargeNumber)
   LargeNumber = Number2;

   if (Number3 > LargeNumber)
   LargeNumber = Number3;

   if (Number4 > LargeNumber)
   LargeNumber = Number4;

   if (Number5 > LargeNumber)
   LargeNumber = Number5;

   //this calculates the smallest number
   SmallNumber = Number1;

   if (Number2 < SmallNumber)
   SmallNumber = Number2;

   if (Number3 < SmallNumber)
   SmallNumber = Number3;

   if (Number4 < SmallNumber)
   SmallNumber = Number4;

   if (Number5 < SmallNumber)
   SmallNumber = Number5;

   //displays the numbers and goodbye!
   System.out.println(”\nI’ve got your numbers and sorted\nthem based on the highest and lowest;\nhere’s the result:”);
   System.out.printf(”\n The Highest number is:%d”, LargeNumber);
   System.out.printf(”\n The Smallest number is:%d”, SmallNumber);
   System.out.println(”\n\nGoodBye!”);

   }

   }

   and here’s my screen shot:
