In this task, you need to: 1. Read integers from the keyboard until something else is entered, such as a string or a character. At least two numbers must be entered. If less than two integers are entered, then terminate the program with an error. You don't need to handle this situation. 2. Display

once again, vague requirements. What does "If several second smallest numbers are entered, then you need to display any one of them" mean ?

I almost give up on this task, why you guys don't post more examples of what is expected from the solution?

from the current test: Be sure that the second smallest is displayed when you enter the numbers 2 2 1. how am I supposed to know which output would be correct in this case? Apparently, the JUDGE expects 2 as an output, but 2 is not a second less number, it's just a second number in a row, the second less number would be 1, but it seems JUDGE has its own logic.

This task has an input-output example with explanations in the comments:

There may also be several minimum numbers.
Example input:

4 // Minimum number
7
4 // Minimum number
5 // Second smallest number
9
5 // Second smallest number
exit
Example output:

The task does not specify what to display if all the entered numbers are equal
