Compare the first two values, taking the largest of the two.
Compare this item with the remaining value, return the largest.

This is quite elegant using max from the stl.

#include <algorithm>

template<class Type>
Type FindLargest(Type a, Type b, Type c)
{
    return std::max( std::max(a, b), c);
};
