5,278 PointsI know I am entering something wrong in. Can somebody help me out?
I am suppose to compare the two, then return the answer. I think I got the return answer part, but to the actually comparing code.
function max( length, width){
var answer ('length > width' +'||' + 'length < width');
return (answer);
}
max(14, 16);

231,236 PointsPerhaps these hints will help:
- never put quotes around variables or operator symbols, that converts them into string literals
- to assign a value to variable use the "=" operator, parentheses are for passing arguments to functions
- you'll only need one inequality comparison for this task
- you'll need a conditional ("if") statement to control what the function does in different situations
- you'll probably need two "return" statements, one controlled by the conditional
Give it another shot and see if you get it this time.
