# `max`
New in version 1.15: The `max` function was added in Twig 1.15.
`max` returns the biggest value of a sequence or a set of values:
<table class="highlighttable"><tr><td class="linenos"><div class="linenodiv"><pre>1
2</pre></div></td><td class="code"><div class="highlight"><pre>{{ max(1, 3, 2) }}
{{ max([1, 3, 2]) }}
</pre></div></td></tr></table>
When called with a mapping, max ignores keys and only compares values:
<table class="highlighttable"><tr><td class="linenos"><div class="linenodiv"><pre>1
2</pre></div></td><td class="code"><div class="highlight"><pre>{{ max({2: "e", 1: "a", 3: "b", 5: "d", 4: "c"}) }}
{# returns "e" #}
</pre></div></td></tr></table>
