Half.MaxNumber(Half, Half) Method

Definition

Namespace:

System

Assembly:

System.Runtime.dll

Source:

Half.cs

Compares two values to compute which is greater and returning the other value if an input is NaN.

public:
 static Half MaxNumber(Half x, Half y) = System::Numerics::INumber<Half>::MaxNumber;

public static Half MaxNumber (Half x, Half y);

static member MaxNumber : Half * Half -> Half

Public Shared Function MaxNumber (x As Half, y As Half) As Half

Parameters

x

Half

The value to compare with y.

y

Half

The value to compare with x.

Returns

Half

x if it is greater than y; otherwise, y.

Implements

MaxNumber(TSelf, TSelf)

Remarks

For IFloatingPoint<TSelf> this method matches the IEEE 754:2019 maximumNumber function. This requires NaN inputs to not be propagated back to the caller and for -0.0 to be treated as less than +0.0.
