2.63 How to find maximum of each row of a matrix?

Given

\[ \left ( {\begin {array} {cc} 1 & 2 \\ 3 & 4 \end {array}} \right ) \]

Find the maximum of each row. The result should be \((2,4)\). (to find the min, just change Max with Min below.

Mathematica mat = {{1, 2}, {3, 4}} Map[Max , mat] (* or Max /@ mat *)

{2,4}

 

Matlab A=[1 2;3 4]; max(A')

2 4

 

Maple A:=Matrix([[1,2],[3,4]]); `max`~([LinearAlgebra:-Row(A,1..-1)])

[2, 4]
