Create a new function named max which accepts two numbers as arguments (you can name the arguments, whatever you would like). The function should return the larger of the two numbers.
HINT: You'll need to use a conditional statement to test the 2 parameters to see which is the larger of the two.
function max (level, price) {
if (level>price) {
return level
} else () {
return price
}
}

30,220 PointsYou don't ever pass anything to the else statement since it accepts all conditions that are not met by the original if conditional statement. You don't need the parentheses after the else clause. You would need them with an else if statement since an else if statement will introduce a second conditional statement that you would need to pass in.

315 Pointsafter the return you need to put " ; " it would be like this ( return level ; ) and you don't ever pass anything to the else statement since it accepts all conditions that are not met by the original if conditional statement.
