You mean like this? It is c and maximum of a list, not of two numbers, but the idea can work in your case too https://code.sololearn.com/cP1LtPA7WdBz/?ref=app

Here is a javascript attempt using a bit different approach. I am not very good at javascript, so if you find a problem (apart from giving variables outside of int range), please tell. https://code.sololearn.com/WZr2PZJqQI0M/?ref=app

"Without if-else, branching, or direct comparisons" Use of Math.max() count? (assumed Javascript from "Js" in Description).
