Hello,
That is of course **NOT** true when it comes to array variables.
Array-aware MAX
x = MAX( array1, array2 );
is orders of magnitude faster than equivalent
for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++ )
if( array1[ i ] > array2[ i ] ) x[ i ] = array1[ i ];
else x[ i ] = array2[ i ];
The original poster question was far too general. He did not mention
if he uses arrays or not and how he defines "the list" of values.
Best regards,
