int max(EnglishLength & A, EnglishLength & B) { int greater; if(A.isGreaterThan(B)) { greater = A.totalInches ; } else { greater = B.totalInches ; } return greater; } how can i return those values? it doesnt work presently because if type problems

what does EnglishLength::isGreaterThan() return? it has to be a number type, your best bet would be a bool

The problem *could* be that a macro with the name 'max' may already be defined.

WTF does "it doesn''t work" mean? By "type problems", you probably mean the compiler issues a diagnostic. If so, what''s the error message? Which line? There are no apparent type problems in your code sample.
