I'm not sure of the problem that you had in the first place, but I can point out that in your "bigger" method, if a number is greater than one then it is bigger, however the else statement says that the number *can* also be equal[==] to the second argument, so for example bigger(1,1) it would check if 1 > 1 and return false, so it will return that b[the second 1] is bigger! Hope this helps :D
