Description

The list of methods to do Number Max Value are organized into topic(s).

Method

floatmax(final float a, final float b)
max 
return a > b ? a : b;
floatmax(final float a, final float b, final float c)
Returns the maximum value of three floats. 
return a > b ? a > c ? a : c : b > c ? b : c;
intmax(final int a, final int b)
Return the greater of the two values. 
return (a >= b ? a : b);
intmax(final int a, final int b)
Provides an unbranched version of max for POSITIVE ints, it does 7 operation instead of branching (which is somewhat slower, but it's mainly here for educational purposes)
The original code can be found in: http://graphics.stanford.edu/~seander/bithacks.html#IntegerMinOrMax 
final int ab = a - b;
return b & (ab >> 31) | a & (~ab >> 31);
doublemax(final Iterable numbers)
max 
double max = -Double.MAX_VALUE;
for (final Number number : numbers) {
    final double value = number.doubleValue();
    if (value > max) {
        max = value;
return max;
...
Doublemax(final Iterable values)
Retrieve the max element 
Double max = Double.NEGATIVE_INFINITY;
for (final Double value : values) {
    if (max < value) {
        max = value;
return max;
NUMBER_TYPEmax(final NUMBER_TYPE n1, final NUMBER_TYPE n2)
max 
if (n1 == null && n2 == null) {
    return null;
} else if (n1 == null) {
    return n2;
} else if (n2 == null) {
    return n1;
final int compared = compareTo(n1, n2);
...
NUMBER_TYPEmax(final NUMBER_TYPE number1, final NUMBER_TYPE number2)
max 
if (number1 == null && number2 == null) {
    return null;
} else if (number1 == null) {
    return number2;
} else if (number2 == null) {
    return number1;
} else if (number1.doubleValue() > number2.doubleValue()) {
    return number1;
...
Stringmax(final String string1, final String string2)
Returns the shortest string. 
if (string1 == null) {
    return string2;
} else if (string2 == null) {
    return string1;
return string1.length() > string2.length() ? string1 : string2;
floatmax(float a, float b)
max 
return a > b ? a : b;
