Yo can a line to fix it.
function find_max(nums) {
let max_num = Number.NEGATIVE_INFINITY; // smaller than all other numbers
for (let num of nums) {
if (num > max_num) {
   max_num = num; // this is missing line
}
}
return max_num;
}

1. function find_max(nums) {
2. let max_num = Number.NEGATIVE_INFINITY; // smaller than all other numbers
3. for (let num of nums) {
4. if (num > max_num) {
5. max_num=num;
6. }
7. }
8. return max_num;
9. }
with each iteration you are comparing the present number is greater than the sammlest number (max_num, initially) or not and then replacing it with the larger one.
So, after completing the iteration you will have max number.
