Hello, in the console.log method you are calling a function addNumbers, however, given the code snippet, the name of the function is max. I would try console.log(max(3, 4)). Also, I think the exercise is wanting you to arg1 and arg2 in the code that executed in the function itself and not just as parameters. return arg1 + arg2. This way the function could, in theory, take in what ever two numbers someone based to it. Hope this helps.

Thank you for getting back to me . I tried to return arg1+arg2 but it did work ,It only excepts 3 and 4 because these numbers are bigger than 1, 2. And console.log(max(3,4)) did not work either .
