The Program in C that print the maximum out of four numbers (With Short logic)is given below:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
    int num1, num2, num3, num4;
    int max;

    printf("Enter the first number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num1);
    printf("Enter the second number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num2);
    printf("Enter the third number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num3);
    printf("Enter the fourth number: ");
    scanf("%d", &num4);

    max = num1;
    if (num2 > max) max = num2;
    if (num3 > max) max = num3;
    if (num4 > max) max = num4;

    printf("The maximum number is: %d", max);

    return 0;
}

Output:

Enter the first number: 32
Enter the second number: 22
Enter the third number: 56
Enter the fourth number: 12
The maximum number is: 56

Pro-Tips💡

This program prompts the user to enter four numbers and assigns the first number to a variable named max.
Then it uses a series of if statements to compare the value of max with the other three numbers one by one. If the value of any of the other three numbers is greater than the value of max, max is updated with the new maximum number.

Finally, the program prints the value of max as the maximum number.

This program uses a short logic and it compares each number with the max and update the max variable with the highest number, so it eliminates the need of nested if-else statements.
