Definition

Namespace:

System

Assembly:

System.Runtime.dll

Source:

Compares two values to compute which is greater.

public:
 static int Max(int x, int y) = System::Numerics::INumber<int>::Max;

public static int Max (int x, int y);

static member Max : int * int -> int

Public Shared Function Max (x As Integer, y As Integer) As Integer

Parameters

x

Int32

The value to compare with y.

y

Int32

The value to compare with x.

Returns

Int32

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

Implements

Max(TSelf, TSelf)

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.
