Recalling a Method [ What Am I Doing Wrong? ]

So I am trying to create a program which takes two integers i input, and returns the bigger of the two. So it would function like this when I type it in Terminal

java Assign5 23 67

the bigger value of the two is 67

So far this is what I have

//Main Method  

public class asign5 {
public static void main (String[] args){
    int num1;
    int num2;      
    num1 = Integer.parseInt(args[0]);
    num2 = Integer.parseInt(args[1]);

System.out.println("The larger value of the two is: " + getMax(num1, num2));

}
}


//getMax Method  


public static int getMax(num1, num2){

if (num1 > num2) { return num1; } 
else
{return num2;}

}

}

It keeps telling me in my main method that getMax is not a valid method although I have created the getMax method. In the getMax method it keeps telling me that public static int is synthax. I've actually spent the last two hours 开发者_JAVA技巧on this roadblock, but have not figured out myself and it's frustrating my brains out. Can someone help me?

You've closed the asign5 class declaration after main, so the getMax method isn't actually in a class at the moment - just remove the second closing brace from before the getMax method. If you had appropriate indentation, this should be obvious: I'd recommend using either an IDE or a text editor which is Java-aware so that you can see this sort of thing very easily.

You also need to change the getMax method signature to specify types for num1 and num2:

public static int getMax(int num1, int num2)
