Book Chapter: 4.1
Problem: numUnique
Write a method numUnique that takes three integers
as parameters and that returns the number of unique integers among the
three. For example, if the following call is made:
numUnique(18, 3, 4)
the method should return 3 because the parameters represent 3 different
numbers (the values 18, 3 and 4). By contrast, the following call:
numUnique(6, 6, 6)
would return 1 because there is only 1 unique number among the three
parameters (the value 6). The values passed to your method might appear in
any order whatsoever, so you cannot assume that duplicate values would
appear together. For example, if the following call is made:
numUnique(7, 31, 7)
the method should return 2 because there are 2 unique numbers among the
parameters (the values 7 and 31).
