<return type="Variant" />
<description>
Returns the maximum value contained in the array if all elements are of comparable types. If the elements can't be compared, [code]null[/code] is returned.
+ To find the maximum value using a custom comparator, you can use [method reduce]. In this example every array element is checked and the first maximum value is returned:
+ [codeblock]
+ func _ready():
+ var arr = [Vector2(0, 1), Vector2(2, 0), Vector2(1, 1), Vector2(1, 0), Vector2(0, 2)]
+ # In this example we compare the lengths.
+ print(arr.reduce(func(max, val): return val if is_length_greater(val, max) else max))
+
+ func is_length_greater(a, b):
+ return a.length() &gt; b.length()
+ [/codeblock]
