fmax

Description

Floating-point maximum.

Signature

T fmax<T>(
    T x,
    T y)
    where T : __BuiltinFloatingPointType;

vector<T, N> fmax<T, int N>(
    vector<T, N> x,
    vector<T, N> y)
    where T : __BuiltinFloatingPointType;

Generic Parameters

T: __BuiltinFloatingPointType

N : int

Parameters

x : T

The first value to compare.

y : T

The second value to compare.

x : vector<T, N>

The first value to compare.

y : vector<T, N>

The second value to compare.

Return value

The larger of the two values, element-wise if vector typed.

Remarks

Result is y if x < y, either x or y if both x and y are zeros, otherwise x. Which operand is the result is undefined if one of the operands is a NaN.
