Others have already shown that you (may) want a function that boils down to

return (first>second)

But there are some things being glossed over:

It is entirely possible that first and second cannot be order (e.g. if at least one is Not a Number) In which case the comparison is meaningless.

C does not have a specific value “true”. In fact, rookie programmers who “fix” this by something like

#define TRUE (1)

and pepper the code with

if ( some_function(a,b) == TRUE)

have been a fertile source of bugs for probably as long as C has existed, since the language definition is only that any non-zero value is interpreted as true for the purpose of tests. Even worse would be #defining TRUE as all-ones, because then even the builtin logical operators (which evaluate to 1 or 0) would not compare as TRUE.
