I have a set of variables of type "integer" and I just want to take the greatest of these values, and set as the value for some new variable. How would I do this in as3? (or any language, I suppose)

ActionScript 3:

var highest:Number = Math.max(first, second, third);

where first, second and third are Numbers or ints.

Math.max(var1, Math.max(var2, var3))
