#include <iostream.h>
typedef short int si;

int main()
{
	si theShoe = 20;
	si theTie, theWatch;
	cout << "enter the price for your watch\n";
	cin >> theWatch;
	cout << "Enter a price for your tie\n";
	cin >> theTie;
	{
	if ( (theTie > theWatch) && ( (theTie + theWatch) > theShoe) )
	
		cout << "the shoe is less then the watch and the tie combined\n";
	
	else 
		if ( (theTie == theWatch) ^ ((theTie + 10) == theWatch) )
		
			cout << "the tie is either worth as much as the watch or the tie is 10$ more then the then watch\n";
		
		else
		
			cout << "the watch is worth more then everything\n";
	}
		return 0;
	
}
