Java > Logic-1 > inOrderEqual (CodingBat Solution)

Problem:

Given three ints, a b c, return true if they are in strict increasing order, such as 2 5 11, or 5 6 7, but not 6 5 7 or 5 5 7. However, with the exception that if "equalOk" is true, equality is allowed, such as 5 5 7 or 5 5 5.

inOrderEqual(2, 5, 11, false) → true
inOrderEqual(5, 7, 6, false) → false
inOrderEqual(5, 5, 7, true) → true

Solution:

public boolean inOrderEqual(int a, int b, int c, boolean equalOk) {
  if (!equalOk && a < b && b < c)
    return true;
  if (equalOk && a <= b && b <= c)
    return true;
  else
    return false;
}
