INumber<TSelf>.Max(TSelf, TSelf) Method

Definition

Compares two values to compute which is greater.

public:
 static override TSelf Max(TSelf x, TSelf y);
public static virtual TSelf Max (TSelf x, TSelf y);
static member Max : 'Self * 'Self -> 'Self
Public Shared Overrides Function Max (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 maximum function. This requires NaN inputs to be propagated back to the caller and for -0.0 to be treated as less than +0.0.
