Python Development Techdegree Student 18,938 PointsTo get some clarification, are you trying to use Math.max(a,b) or a function named "max" that's trying to pass two numbers into the function?
If you are trying to use Math.max(4,20) then you have to use Math.max(4,20) to get it to return 20.

Python Development Techdegree Student 18,938 PointsSorry, I didn't relize that this was part of a Code Challenge. Given the code challenge you are looking at developing a function named max that accepts two arguments; here's what I did:
function max( x, y ) {
if ( x > y ) {
return x;
} else {
return y;
}
}
max(4,20);
When you call max(4, 20); then it will retrun 20 (which would go in as y)
