Comparing 3 or more variables.

[D God of Mind D]

Hello, guys. I didn't found any info about it, so I ask it here.
I have character, which can gaim genetic points of 3 types: red_gene, blue_gene, green_gene.

I need to compare all three variables to find the highest of them in case to change color of the sprite to relative one. I know how to find highest variable between two, it's just if (red_gene < blue_gene). But I don't know how to do it with 3 or more variables.

Well, nvm. I found the solution. Can close the thread.

Edit: nevermind, haha, literally the second after I posted you posted saying that you answered your own question.

var highest = max(red_gene, green_gene, blue_gene);

If you want the biggest or smallest, you can just use min and max.

var highest = max(red_gene, blue_gene, green_gene);

EDIT: Beaten with an almost identical answer

You know what's funny also is that our post would have been identical but I thought to myself, "well, the order is RGB whenever talking about colors, so even the poster did it red_gene, blue_gene, green_gene, I'll do it red_gene, green_gene, blue_gene".

Ok, enough of my palavering (love that word).
