MAX

Returns the largest value in a set of values.
Syntax
MAX(number1,number2,...)
Number1, number2, ...    are 1 to 30 numbers for which you want to find the maximum value.
Remarks

• You can specify arguments that are numbers, empty cells, logical values, or text representations of numbers. Arguments that are error values or text that cannot be translated into numbers cause errors.
• If an argument is an array or reference, only numbers in that array or reference are used. Empty cells, logical values, or text in the array or reference are ignored. If logical values and text must not be ignored, use MAXA instead.
• If the arguments contain no numbers, MAX returns 0 (zero).
