Math::Max Method (Double, Double)
.NET Framework (current version)
Returns the larger of two double-precision floating-point numbers.
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Parameters
- val1
-
Type:
System::Double
The first of two double-precision floating-point numbers to compare.
- val2
-
Type:
System::Double
The second of two double-precision floating-point numbers to compare.
Return Value
Type: System::DoubleParameter val1 or val2, whichever is larger. If val1, val2, or both val1 and val2 are equal to NaN, NaN is returned.
The following example demonstrates how to use the Max method to return and display the greater of two variables.
// This example demonstrates Math.Max() using namespace System; int main() { String^ str = "{0}: The greater of {1,3} and {2,3} is {3}."; String^ nl = Environment::NewLine; Byte xByte1 = 1,xByte2 = 51; short xShort1 = -2,xShort2 = 52; int xInt1 = -3,xInt2 = 53; long xLong1 = -4,xLong2 = 54; float xSingle1 = 5.0f,xSingle2 = 55.0f; double xDouble1 = 6.0,xDouble2 = 56.0; Decimal xDecimal1 = 7,xDecimal2 = 57; // The following types are not CLS-compliant. SByte xSbyte1 = 101,xSbyte2 = 111; UInt16 xUshort1 = 102,xUshort2 = 112; UInt32 xUint1 = 103,xUint2 = 113; UInt64 xUlong1 = 104,xUlong2 = 114; Console::WriteLine( "{0}Display the greater of two values:{0}", nl ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Byte ", xByte1, xByte2, Math::Max( xByte1, xByte2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Int16 ", xShort1, xShort2, Math::Max( xShort1, xShort2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Int32 ", xInt1, xInt2, Math::Max( xInt1, xInt2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Int64 ", xLong1, xLong2, Math::Max( xLong1, xLong2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Single ", xSingle1, xSingle2, Math::Max( xSingle1, xSingle2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Double ", xDouble1, xDouble2, Math::Max( xDouble1, xDouble2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "Decimal", xDecimal1, xDecimal2, Math::Max( xDecimal1, xDecimal2 ) ); // Console::WriteLine( "{0}The following types are not CLS-compliant.{0}", nl ); Console::WriteLine( str, "SByte ", xSbyte1, xSbyte2, Math::Max( xSbyte1, xSbyte2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "UInt16 ", xUshort1, xUshort2, Math::Max( xUshort1, xUshort2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "UInt32 ", xUint1, xUint2, Math::Max( xUint1, xUint2 ) ); Console::WriteLine( str, "UInt64 ", xUlong1, xUlong2, Math::Max( xUlong1, xUlong2 ) ); } /* This example produces the following results: Display the greater of two values: Byte : The greater of 1 and 51 is 51. Int16 : The greater of -2 and 52 is 52. Int32 : The greater of -3 and 53 is 53. Int64 : The greater of -4 and 54 is 54. Single : The greater of 5 and 55 is 55. Double : The greater of 6 and 56 is 56. Decimal: The greater of 7 and 57 is 57. (The following types are not CLS-compliant.) SByte : The greater of 101 and 111 is 111. UInt16 : The greater of 102 and 112 is 112. UInt32 : The greater of 103 and 113 is 113. UInt64 : The greater of 104 and 114 is 114. */
