python 3.x - Number sort using Min, Max and Variables -

i new programming , trying create program take 3 random numbers x y , z , sort them ascending order x being lowest , z highest using min, max functions , variable (tmp)

i know there particular strategy need use effects (x,y) pair first (y,z) (x,y) again can't grasp logic.

the closest have got far is...

y=min(y,z) x=min(x,y)  tmp=max(y,z)  z=tmp  tmp=max(x,y)  y=tmp  x=min(x,y)  tmp=max(x,y)  y=tmp  

i've tried many different combinations seems problem unsolvable can else help?

you need sort x,y pair first

tmp=min(x,y) y=max(x,y) x=tmp 

then sort y,z pair

tmp = min(y,z) z=max(y,z) y=tmp 

then, resort x,y pair (in case original z lowest value...

tmp=min(x,y) y=max(x,y) x=tmp 

if commands have mentioned ones available on website, , can use each 1 once try:

# sort x,y pair tmp=max(x,y)  x=min(x,y)  y=tmp   # sort y,z pair tmp=max(y,z)  y=min(y,z) z=tmp   # sort x,y pair again. tmp=max(x,y)  x=min(x,y)  y=tmp  

hope helps.
