- Max[Number a, Number b]
- Yields the maximum of the given numbers a and b.
- Max[List of Numbers]
- Yields the maximum of the numbers within the list.
Note: If the input consists of non-numeric objects, then Max[] considers the numbers associated with those objects. For example, Max[List of Segments] will yield the maximum segment length.
- Max[ Function, left-x, right-x ]
- Calculates the maximum point for function in the given interval. Function should only have on maximum point in the interval.
Note: See also Extremum Command and Function Inspector Tool.
- Max[ Interval ]
- Returns the upper bound of the interval, e.g.
Max[2<x<3]returns 3. It is the same for open and closed intervals.
CAS Syntax
- Max[Number a, Number b]
- Yields the maximum of the given numbers a and b.
- Example:
Max[12, 15]yields 15.
- Max[List of Numbers]
- Yields the maximum of the numbers within the list.
- Example:
Max[{-2, 12, -23, 17, 15}]yields 17.
