Primitive Parallel Maximum

Element-wise maximum of two arrays, like base::pmax().

Usage

prim_pmax(lhs, rhs)

Arguments

lhs, rhs

(arrayish)
Two inputs of the same data type and shape. Can be any data type. R values take the other operand's data type when it is in their data type category, and their default data type when neither operand has one. An R value outside the other operand's category is an error, as are two R values of different storage types.

Value

(arrayish)
Has the inputs' shape and data type.

Examples

# two R values: both take an R double's default data type
prim_pmax(1, 5)
#> AnvlArray
#>  5
#> [ CPUf32{} ] 

# the R value is built at the array's data type instead
prim_pmax(1, nv_scalar(5, "f64"))
#> AnvlArray
#>  5
#> [ CPUf64{} ]
