If I was to read in 7 integers and I wanted to find the largest number using only if statements (no arrays) but also keep the amount of code to a reasonable amount, does anyone know how to do that?

Not saying this is the best way, just the method that comes to mind.
int Best = Value1;
if (Value2 > Best) Best = Value2;
if (Value3 > Best) Best = Value3;
if (Value4 > Best) Best = Value4;
if (Value5 > Best) Best = Value5;
if (Value6 > Best) Best = Value6;
if (Value7 > Best) Best = Value7;
