Best way to parse and compare a string in Construct?

You could get put the highest name/number in a new variable (Answer) like this.

It must be like "goto" or something where maybe people frown upon using it?

No, ternary operator is perfectly valid and can often be really handy. Unless you start nesting lots of them and the code becomes difficult to understand.

dop2000 yeah that's what I figured. I used to code where lots of other programmers would be looking at other's code and it was all about writing stuff in a way that another set of eyes could easily understand what was going on. It was all about speed in the sense of understanding without having to talk to the original programmer.

or simply, maybe the compiler or interpreter didn't use it. Anyways I probably should use it more for cases like this, because honestly my other solution is even more confusing!

sizcoz oh I like that way as well. cool thanks!
