Function: max()
max<
ElementType
>(iterable
:IterableResolvable
<ElementType
>):ElementType
|null
Consumes the iterable and returns the highest number element. If the iterable is empty, it returns null
.
This function uses the default comparator (lexicographically), which means it will compare the elements as strings. If this is undesirable, use maxBy instead.

Parameters
Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
iterable | IterableResolvable <ElementType > | An iterator of number values to determine the maximum value of. |
Returns
ElementType
| null
The maximum value in the input iterator, or null
if the iterator is empty or contains only non-number values.
Seealso
maxBy for a version that allows custom comparators.
Seealso
maxByKey for a version that allows custom key extractors.
Example
import { max } from '@sapphire/iterator-utilities';
const iterable = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
console.log(max(iterable));
// Output: 5
Remarks
This function consumes the entire iterator.
