var A =10, B=5, C=15, mid=0, flag=0;

if(A>B && B>C || C>B && B>AB)
mid = B;
else if ( A>C && C>B || B>C && C>A)
mid = C;
else if ( B>A && A>C || C>A && A>B)
mid = A;
else
print("two or more numbers have same value");
flag=1;

if(flag=0)
{
    print("Middle number is "+mid);
}



There is single problem that you increase the execution time with using unneccessary else if while you can use OR operator also.Your logic is right but the execution of its wrong.
