Hello! Is this a good solution to the max() challenge?

Hello! First time I've used the discussion board, so I'm hoping my solution shows!

script.js 
function max(firstNumber, secondNumber) {
  if (firstNumber > secondNumber) {
    return firstNumber;
  } else {
    return secondNumber;
  }
}
alert(max(5,10));

Nothing wrong with it, you created a function with two parameters (which is needed) that are a simple method. It does the job!
