std::valarray::max(3)

🎀 NAME 🎀

okay so you opened the std::valarray::max(3) page in the C++ Standard Libary manual, and the NAME section is literally std::valarray::max - std::valarray::max. Self-titled. Main character energy. No notes. 💅

std::valarray::max — she finds the biggest element and returns it. That's the whole job, and she ate.

✨ Synopsis ✨

T max() const;

Computes the maximum value of the elements. That's the whole vibe. 💖

If there are no elements, the behavior is undefined. Genuinely undefined. Like, do not call her on an empty valarray and expect a cute answer — that's not a vibe check, that's a bug. 😭

The function can be used only if operator< is defined for type T. No operator< for T? Then this function is not invited to the function. Periodt.

🫶 Parameters 🫶

None. Zero. Zilch. She takes no parameters. 💅

👑 Return value 👑

The maximum of the elements. Slay. That's it. That's the return value. 💖

🧚 Example 🧚

// Run this code

#include <valarray>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    std::valarray<double> a{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8};
    std::cout << "Maximum value : " << a.max() << "\n";
}

🌸 Output 🌸

Maximum value : 8
