Biggest and smallest of four integers (No arrays, no functions, fewest 'if' statements)

Question

You see, I\'ve self-taught myself C++ (not completely, I\'m still procrastinating -_-). So, now I started university and they\'re teaching C and they made us do a program of

Answer 1

This is too easy, given that the numbers are a,b,c,d:

#define min(a,b)  ((a) < (b) ? (a) : (b))
#define max(a,b)  ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
biggest  = max (max(a,b), max(c,d))
smallest = min (min(a,b), min(c,d))

Here you go, no if statements, no functions (though the latter is the most stupid and harmful to adepts requirement I ever heard of).
