.max()

The Math.max() method returns the maximum value from the given two arguments.

Math.max(num1, num2)

• The .max() method takes two parameters num1 and num2.
• num1 and num2 can be of type int, float, double or long.

The following example uses the .max() method to print the maximum of two numbers:

// Main.java
public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args){
    int num1 = 50;
    int num2 = 10;

    System.out.println(Math.max(num1, num2));
  }
}

This results in the following output:

50

The following example uses the .max() method to print the maximum of three numbers:

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args){
    int num1 = 4;
    int num2 = 10;
    int num3 = 1;

    System.out.println(Math.max(Math.max(num1, num2),num3));
  }
}

This results in the following output:

10
