NAME
fmax, fmaxf, fmaxl - determine maximum of two floating-point numbers
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double fmax(double x, double y);
float fmaxf(float x, float y);
long double fmaxl(long double x, long double y);
Link with -lm.
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
fmax(), fmaxf(), fmaxl():
_ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
