Why can't it find the variable num2?
function max(num2, num3){
if (num2>num3){
return num2;
}else{
return num3;
};
};
console.log(max(2,3));
function max(num2, num3){
return num2 + num3;
}
console.log( max(num2, num3) );

If you delete the last 4 lines of code (not sure why they are even there?), everything works. Just delete everything after the line console.log(max(2,3));
Keep coding! :)

7,422 PointsI realized that when I put the variables in for the console, I made a mistake. But now it is saying that the 'max' function doesn't seem to work...
