Question

Using C++ code, write a program named q5.cpp to print the minimum of the sums x + y^3 and x^3 + y, where x and y are input by a user via the keyboard.

Answer 1

C++ code:

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main(){
    //initializing x and y
    int x,y;
    //asking for x and y
    cout<<"Enter x and y: ";
    //accepting them
    cin>>x>>y;
    //checking if the first sum is smaller than second
    if(x+pow(y,3)<pow(x,3)+y)
    //printing the first sum
        cout<<"Minimum is "<<x+pow(y,3)<<endl;
    else
    //printing the second sum
        cout<<"Minimum is "<<pow(x,3)+y<<endl;
    return 0;
}
