Courses Plus Student 955 PointsFunction Challenge
I keep getting a bummer message on this challenge with the question Did you pass 2 numbers to the max() function? I guess I am challenged myself because I am totally not getting this section, I thought I was passing the information inside the parenthesis when I called the function.
function max(lowest, highest) {
return highest
}
max('40,50');
alert('50 is higher than 40');

Courses Plus Student 1,114 PointsSorry but you didn't compare the two parameters which one is higher ; try this :
function max(a, b) {
if (a < b) { // if a is lower than b
return b; // we return b
} else { // if a is the higher number
return a; //we return a
}
}
alert(max(40,50)); // using alert to make it show the higher number : 40 or 50
