Task challenge

Hi there,

In this challenge, all we need to do is write the function - we don't need to call it or anything. That means everything we do can be inside the function's brackets. The directions say we need to take two number values, so let's start with a basic function framework that takes two values:

function max(num1, num2) {

}

From here, we know we want to return the larger of the two values. So, let's test if the first value is greater than the second one, and return the first value if so:

function max(num1, num2) {
  if(num1 > num2) {
    return num1;
  }
}

Now we just need to return the second value if the first value isn't bigger. So, we add an else statement:

function max(num1, num2) {
  if(num1 > num2) {
    return num1;
  } else {
    return num2;
  }
}

That should be what you need to pass the challenge - let me know if anything still doesn't make sense!
