Thread: Min and Max Macros

min and max macro's compare two values and return either the smaller or larger value respectively. It compares numerical data types either signed or unsigned. The prototypes look like this.

#define min(a, b) (((a) < (b)) ? (a) : (b))
#define max(a, b) (((a) > (b)) ? (a) : (b))

The macro's are defined in the windows header file.

you can use a inline function it is easier like below code

#inline min(int a,int b){ a<b ? a : b ;}

and the max one is same
