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

public:
 static override TSelf MaxNumber(TSelf x, TSelf y);

public static virtual TSelf MaxNumber (TSelf x, TSelf y);

static member MaxNumber : 'Self * 'Self -> 'Self

Public Shared Overrides Function MaxNumber (x As TSelf, y As TSelf) As TSelf

Parameters

x: TSelf

The value to compare with y.

y: TSelf

The value to compare with x.

Returns

TSelf

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

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.
