Answer 1

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Lab4Part13{

    public static void main(String[] args){
        Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter three strings: ");
        String s1 = input.next(), s2 = input.next(), s3 = input.next(), temp;
        if (s1.compareTo(s2) > 0) {
            temp = s1;
            s1 = s2;
            s2 = temp;
        }
        if (s2.compareTo(s3) > 0) {
            temp = s3;
            s3 = s2;
            s2 = temp;
        }
        if (s1.compareTo(s2) > 0) {
            temp = s1;
            s1 = s2;
            s2 = temp;
        }
        System.out.println("Strings in sorted order are");
        System.out.println(s1);
        System.out.println(s2);
        System.out.println(s3);
    }
