3 numbers in ascending order WITHOUT the use of conditional statements in Java. As in I can't use if statements at all

Question

My code looks like this so far:

public class ThreeSort {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        int num1 = Integer.parseInt(args[0]);
        int          


        

Answer 1

Put them in a List and sort it...

List ints = new LinkedList<>();
ints.add(Integer.parseInt(args[0]));
ints.add(Integer.parseInt(args[1]));
ints.add(Integer.parseInt(args[2]));

Collections.sort(ints); // smallest -> greatest
System.out.println(ints);

Collections.reverse(ints); // greatest -> smallest
System.out.println(ints);
