MAX, MIN - maximum or minimum of two values

       Due to the usual arithmetic conversions, the result of these macros may be very different from either  of
       the arguments.  To avoid this, ensure that both arguments have the same type.

       These macros return the maximum or minimum of a and b.

       These macros may raise the "invalid" floating-point exception when any of the arguments is NaN.

       #include <stdio.h>
       #include <stdlib.h>
       #include <sys/param.h>

       int
       main(int argc, char *argv[])
       {
           int a, b, x;

           if (argc != 3) {
               fprintf(stderr, "Usage: %s <num> <num>\n", argv[0]);
               exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
           }

           a = atoi(argv[1]);
           b = atoi(argv[2]);
           x = MAX(a, b);
           printf("MAX(%d, %d) is %d\n", a, b, x);

           exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
       }

       MAX, MIN - maximum or minimum of two values

       If either of the arguments is of a floating-point type, you might prefer to use fmax(3) or fmin(3), which
       can handle NaN.

       The arguments may be evaluated more than once, or not at all.

       Some UNIX systems might provide these macros in a different header, or not at all.

       These  macros  return  the  value  of one of their arguments, possibly converted to a different type (see
       BUGS).
