The following documentation is located at Template:~Max27/doc. [<Edit> Template:~Max27/doc]
[⧼Purge⧽ Template:~Max27]

The {{~Max27}} core function template (used by the {{MAX}} mathematical function template) gives the maximum of one to twenty-seven numbers or mathematical expressions, but should be used for ten to twenty-seven numbers or mathematical expressions, whereas {{~Max9}} should be used for four to nine numbers or mathematical expressions. This template

• considers only the first twenty-seven arguments (ignores extra arguments);
• considers only arguments (among the first twenty-seven) which are not undefined, empty string or white space characters (spaces, tabs, newlines) only;
• returns empty string if all twenty-seven arguments are undefined, empty string or white space characters (spaces, tabs, newlines) only;
• returns an error message when a considered argument does not evaluate to a number (arguments require prior validation).

Usage

{{~Max27|expression 1|(at least up to expression 10 is recommended)|expression 10|...|expression 27}}

Valid input

One to twenty-seven expressions yielding numbers (requires prior validation) as arguments. Extra arguments are ignored! Arguments (among the first twenty-seven) which are undefined, empty string or white space characters (spaces, tabs, newlines) only are ignored.
