C++ Read two numbers: Find Difference and Sign Check

Write a C++ program that reads two integers from the user, calculates their difference, and checks whether the result is positive, negative, or zero. 

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main() {

    int num1, num2, difference;

    // Input two integers

    cout << "Enter first integer: ";

    cin >> num1;

    cout << "Enter second integer: ";

    cin >> num2;

    // Calculate difference

    difference = num1 - num2;

    // Display result

    cout << "Difference = " << difference << endl;

    // Check whether the result is positive, negative, or zero

    if (difference > 0) {

        cout << "The difference is positive." << endl;

    } else if (difference < 0) {

        cout << "The difference is negative." << endl;

    } else {

        cout << "The difference is zero." << endl;

    }

    return 0;

}

/* Sample Output

Enter first integer: 50

Enter second integer: 20

Difference = 30

The difference is positive.
