Java Float - max() Method

The java.lang.Float.max() method returns the greater of two float values as if by calling Math.max.

Syntax

public static float max(float a,
                        float b)

Parameters

`a`	Specify the first operand.
`b`	Specify the second operand.

Return Value

Returns the greater of a and b.

Exception

NA.

Example:

In the example below, the java.lang.Float.max() method returns the greater of passed two float arguments.

import java.lang.*;

public class MyClass {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    
    //creating float values
    float x = 5.2f;
    float y = 10.2f;

    //printing the max of two float values
    System.out.println("max(x, y) = " + Float.max(x, y));   
  }
}

The output of the above code will be:

max(x, y) = 10.2
