The code works and runs like it should, there is an issue with one of the stipulations.

Question about the task

Minimum of four numbers

Java Syntax, Level 2, Lesson 8

Resolved

The (a,b,c,d) method is supposed to run the same as the (a,b) method, it claims that it isn't, how do I fix this?

Write a function that computes the minimum of four numbers.
The function min(a, b, c, d) should use (call) the function min(a, b)

Hint:
You need to write the body of the two existing min functions.

Requirements:

The program should display text on the screen.
The min methods should not display text on the screen.
The main method should call min(a, b) and min(a, b, c, d).
The main method should display the result of the min methods. Each time, on a new line.
The min(a, b) method must return the minimum of the numbers a and b.
The min(a, b, c, d) method must use the min(a, b) method.
The min(a, b, c, d) method must return the minimum of the numbers a, b, c, and d.
