IModelling.Max_

Fore Syntax

Max_(A: String; B: String): String;

Fore.NET Syntax

Max_(A: string; B: string): string;

Parameters

A. First compared string.

B. Second compared string.

Description

The Max_ method returns maximum of the two strings by means of characterwise comparison.

Comments

Comparison is case-sensitive.

The function returns Null if at least one of the parameters is equal to Null.

To get minimum of the two strings, use the IModelling.Min_ method.

Fore Example

To execute the example, add a link to the Ms system assembly.

Sub UserProc;
Var
    Func: Modelling;
    res: String;
Begin
    Func := New Modelling.Create;
    res := Func.Max_("Apple", "Banana");
    Debug.WriteLine("Max_(""" + "Apple" + """" +
        ", """ + "Banana" + """" + ") = " + res);
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example the console window displays maximum string from the Apple and Banana strings.
