Harlowe: Choose highest value

HohesHaus

Hi,

I have 4 variables each of them is different

A: 1
B: 4
C: 2
6

In the game only the highest variable shall be shown. So variable D shall be shown in my example.

How do I do that in Harlowe?

You can use the Javascript Math.max function:

(set: $var1 to 1)
(set: $var2 to 3)
(set: $var3 to 9)
(set: $var4 to 7)

max: (print: Math.max($var1, $var2, $var3, $var4))

L

You can also use the standard (max:) macro:

(max: $var1, $var2, $var3, $var4)

There's also (floor:), (ceil:), (round:), (min:), (abs:), (sign:), (sin:), (cos:), (tan:), and a few more esoteric ones (pow, log, log10, log2, sqrt, exp), if you need other maths functions normally only usable in JS.
