Hi Imran,

Could you please run your script with below parameter
4 45 1. It will give the output as "1 is the largest number"
reason is you have used only sort command not sort -nr so it will not sort in reverse order, so in your case head -1 will rather than tail -1.

Hi A,

Regarding your answer you have to run by below way.

say you are keeping your script in file test.sh
then

sh test.sh 43 1 34

Actually it takes the positional parameter so after script whatever input you provide it takes as parameter.

Feel free to send me email aseem02@gmail.com if you have any doubt regarding shell scripting, will glad to help you guys.
