Math min() and max()
In this chapter you will learn:
Math min() and max() Methods
The min() and max()
methods determine which number is the smallest or
largest in a group of numbers.
These methods accept any number of parameters:
<!DOCTYPE html><!--from ja v a2 s . c o m-->
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var max = Math.max(3, 5, 3, 6);
document.writeln(max); // 6
var min = Math.min(3, 5, 3, 6);
document.writeln(min); //3
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
Max/Min value for an array
To find the maximum or the minimum value in an
array, you can use the apply() method as follows:
<!DOCTYPE html><!--from j ava 2 s. co m-->
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var values = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8];
var max = Math.max.apply(Math, values);
document.writeln(max);//8
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
