Function max

pub fn max<T>(v1: T, v2: T) -> T
where
    T: Ord,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

Returns the second argument if the comparison determines them to be equal.

Internally uses an alias to Ord::max.

Examples

use std::cmp;

assert_eq!(cmp::max(1, 2), 2);
assert_eq!(cmp::max(2, 2), 2);

use std::cmp::{self, Ordering};

#[derive(Eq)]
struct Equal(&'static str);

impl PartialEq for Equal {
    fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool { true }
}
impl PartialOrd for Equal {
    fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Option<Ordering> { Some(Ordering::Equal) }
}
impl Ord for Equal {
    fn cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Ordering { Ordering::Equal }
}

assert_eq!(cmp::max(Equal("v1"), Equal("v2")).0, "v2");
