Math.au3

[Guest NHTester]

I just recently started using AutoIT3 and one of the first things I played with were the _Min and _Max functions in Math.au3. I wrote a script that prompted the user for two numbers. I then saved these numbers and called the _Max function to compare these numbers. It appears that when I do this the values the user enters are saved as strings and the _Max function doesn't do the compare properly.

For example, if the user enteres '6' and '56', the _Max function returns '6' rather than '56'. However, if I simply call the function as _Max(6,56), 56 is returned as expected.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

I included my script below for better clarification.

Thanks.

#include <Math.au3>

$number = InputBox("AutoIt Example", "Please type in a number and click OK")

$number2 = InputBox("AutoIt Example", "Please type in a number and click OK")

$highernumber = _Max ($number, $number2)

MsgBox (0, "This is the highest number", $highernumber)
