Math.maxDouble()
Signature
double maxDouble (double a, double b)
Description
Returns the greater of two double values. That
is, the result is the argument closer to positive infinity. If
the arguments have the same value, the result is that same
value. If either value is NaN, then the result is NaN. Unlike
the the numerical comparison operators, this method considers
negative zero to be strictly smaller than positive zero. If one
argument is positive zero and the other negative zero, the
result is positive zero.
Parameters
| Name | Type | Description |

a | double | An argument. |

Returns
| Type | Description |

double | The larger of a and b. |
Example
String result = String.valueOfDouble (Math.maxDouble (4.32, 29.34));
Result is: result contains: "29.34"
