In MathCAD 14 I am attempting to find the maximum absolute value in a vector that contains positive and negative numbers. With only positve numbers in the vector this works to determine the maximum value:
max(vector)=
With positive and negative values I have tried putting the vector in absolute value bars within the max function like this:
max([vector])=
but the answer is strange and is larger than the aboslute value of any of the entrys in the vector (maybe it's finding the determinant?).
How can a command be written to find the maximum of all the absolute values in a vector?
