[Solved] C++ std::max acting like std::min

by


The error is that you are re-using the teleportation_start_position variable.

teleportation_start_position = min(teleportation_start_position, teleportation_end_position);

Before this line the state of your program is:

  • teleportation_start_position = 8
  • teleportation_end_position = 2

But after, it is:

  • teleportation_start_position = 2
  • teleportation_end_position = 2

So in the next line you are doing:

teleportation_end_position = max(teleportation_start_position, teleportation_end_position);
// teleportation_end_position = max(2, 2);
