I don't know, why I get the bummer: There was a syntax error!
function max(first, second) {
var larger;
if() {
first > second;
larger = first;
} else {
larger = second;
} return larger;
}
max(3,4);

, I think you moved it one line down, it should look like this:
// check if first is bigger than second
if ( first > second ) {
// add your code here
}
