ASIC Verification: Arrange the 4 n-bit numbers

Arrange the 4 n-bit numbers

There is a component called "X" with 2 inputs - A and B, and 2 outputs - X and Y. If you pass 2 n-bit numbers to the component X, the component produced the biggest number at the output X and the smallest number at the output Y.

Using minimum numbers of these components "X", Design a component "M" with 4 inputs A, B, C and D and 4 outputs W, X, Y and Z in which

'W' is the max (A, B, C, D), 'Z' is the min(A, B, C, D). 'X' is bigger than 'Y' but smaller than 'W' and 'Y' is bigger than 'Z' and smaller than 'X'.
