Computer Applications

Design a class to overload a method compare( ) as follows:

  1. void compare(int, int) — to compare two integers values and print the greater of the two integers.
  2. void compare(char, char) — to compare the numeric value of two characters and print with the higher numeric value.
  3. void compare(String, String) — to compare the length of the two strings and print the longer of the two.
