My code passes in the tests I run without verification. Can someone explain why it isn't passing? Thanks

Question about the task

Resolved

package com.codegym.task.task04.task0424; /* Three numbers */ import java.io.*; public class Solution { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { //write your code here BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in)); String numberString = reader.readLine(); String[]numberStr = numberString.split(" "); int[] numbers = new int[numberStr.length]; for(int i = 0;i < numberStr.length;i++) { numbers[i] = Integer.parseInt(numberStr[i]); } if((numbers[0] == numbers[1]) && (numbers[0] != numbers[2])){ System.out.println(3); } else if((numbers[0] == numbers[2]) && (numbers[0] != numbers[1])){ System.out.println(2); } else if((numbers[1] == numbers[2]) && (numbers[1] != numbers[0])){ System.out.println(1); } else{ } } }

Use the keyboard to enter three integers. One of the numbers is unique. The other two are identical. Display the ordinal number of the number that is different from the others.

Example for 4 6 6:
1

Example for 6 6 3:
3

Requirements:

The program should read the numbers from the keyboard.
The program should use System.out.println() or System.out.print().
The program should display the ordinal number of the number that is different from the others.
If all the numbers are different, don't display anything.

When you enter numbers from the keyboard the expectations are that each number will be on a new line: Your code expects inputs like this: 1 2 3 The correct way to enter data is like this: 1 2 3 Remember this as it is the case for every task. The verification system only checks it the second way and will fail you for doing it the first.
