Return the greater number

[Floppy]

Hello, this script is driving me crazy. I have an array of numbers and I want to have the greater.

$job_soldi_magg = 0
 
For $z = 1 To (UBound($job_soldi)-1)
 
If $job_soldi[$z] > $job_soldi_magg Then $job_soldi_magg = $job_soldi[$z]
 
Next
 
MsgBox(0, 'Maggiore finale', $job_soldi_magg)

The array $job_soldi is this:

[0]|
[1]|0.15
[2]|18.06
[3]|4.88
[4]|1.12
[5]|0.21
[6]|0.09
[7]|0.09
[8]|0.09
[9]|0.06
[10]|0.39
[11]|0.18
[12]|0.24
[13]|0.03
[14]|0.78
[15]|0.18
[16]|0.24
[17]|0.84
[18]|0.30
[19]|0.24
[20]|0.12

The greater number is 18.06, but the script returns 4.88.

Can someone explain me why this happens? Thank you!

You are comparing a strings instead of float numbers.

You do a string compare in your script.

Try this:

$job_soldi_magg = 0
For $z = 1 To UBound($job_soldi)-1
    If Number($job_soldi[$z]) > $job_soldi_magg Then $job_soldi_magg = Number($job_soldi[$z])
Next
MsgBox(0, 'Maggiore finale', $job_soldi_magg)
