I couldn't log the result on the console of the max function.

I couldn't log the result on the console of the max function question.

1st: When you call function you don't type function keyword before the function call you just call it 

 max(1,2);

2nd: When logging something in the console you don't use "return" in the parentheses, you just log the function

console.log ( max(1,2));

so the code for the challenge should look like this :

function max(number1, number2) {
   if (number1 > number2 ){
      return number1 
  }else {
   return number2
  }
}
max(1,2);
console.log ( max(1,2));
