How do return larger number of the two parameters I set

Hi there Abdullahi,

As I understand it, the code challenge is asking you to use an if statement to get the largest value.

I'd start by first of all passing in 2 variables as parameters to the max function. for example, max1 and max2 but they could be anything.

function max(max1, max2) {

}

Remember these are just variables that will contain the values you'll pass in as arguments.

You can use a condition statement like so.

if(max1 > max2) {
  return max1;
} else {
  return max2;
}

So what's happening here is when you return max1 you're assuming that the value for max1 will be bigger than max2. JavaScript will then execute that condition blog.

You could add an elseif condition to test for equal values but I don't think you need to worry about that for the challenge. The elseblock may suffice. If max1 isn't the largest number, max2 will be.

The way you determine this is to call the function with the actual values, like so.

max(3,2);

This will make sure the if block returns max1 as the largest number. Hope this helps.
