58. Maximum of Two Numbers

How do you plan to solve it?

module max2_func (
    input  [7:0] a,
    input  [7:0] b,
    output [7:0] max
);
    // ---------- Predefined function (complete the body) ----------
    function [7:0] max2;
        input [7:0] x, y;
        begin
            max2 = (x < y) ? y : x;
            // TODO: write the single comparison line below:
            // max2 = ( /* condition */ ) ? /* ... */ : /* ... */ ;
        end
    endfunction
    // -------------------------------------------------------------

    // TODO: call the function to produce the output
    assign max = max2(a, b);
