Maxima and Minima

Description:

     Returns the (parallel) maxima and minima of the input values.

Usage:

     max(..., na.rm = FALSE)
     min(..., na.rm = FALSE)

     pmax(..., na.rm = FALSE)
     pmin(..., na.rm = FALSE)

     pmax.int(..., na.rm = FALSE)
     pmin.int(..., na.rm = FALSE)

Arguments:

     ...: numeric or character arguments (see Note).

   na.rm: a logical indicating whether missing values should be
          removed.

Details:

     ‘pmax’ and ‘pmin’ take one or more vectors (or matrices) as
     arguments and return a single vector giving the ‘parallel’ maxima
     (or minima) of the vectors.  The first element of the result is
     the maximum (minimum) of the first elements of all the arguments,
     the second element of the result is the maximum (minimum) of the
     second elements of all the arguments and so on.  Shorter inputs
     are recycled if necessary.  ‘attributes’ (such as ‘names’ or
     ‘dim’) are transferred from the first argument (if applicable).
