#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#define MAX 100
int main()
{
    char text1[MAX], text2[MAX];
    int result;

    printf("Enter first string: ");
    gets(text1);
    printf("Enter second string: ");
    gets(text2);


    result = strcmp(text1, text2);

    if(result == 0)
    {
        printf("\n Both strings are equal.");
    }
    else if(result == -1)
    {
        printf("\n First string is lexicographically smaller than second.");
    }
    else
    {
        printf("\n First string is lexicographically greater than second.");
    }

    return 0;
}
