I have updated the PR to include an extended Math.max function, similar to the changes made for Math.min. This ensures consistency in the API and provides a unified approach for handling multiple parameters across both methods. Additionally, I have updated the PR title to reflect these enhancements. Please let me know if further changes are required.
