Return Value:This method returns a short value that is the maximum value in the specified array.

Exceptions:The method throws IllegalArgumentException if the array is empty.

Below programs illustrate the use of the above method:

Example-1 :




// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Shorts.max() method
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts;
import java.util.Arrays;
  
class GFG {
    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Creating a short array
        short[] arr = { 2, 4, 6, 10, 0, -5, 15, 7 };
  
        // Using Shorts.max() method to get the
        // maximum value present in the array
        System.out.println("Maximum value is : " + Shorts.max(arr));
    }
}


Output:

Maximum value is : 15

Example-2 :




// Java code to show implementation of
// Guava's Shorts.max() method
import com.google.common.primitives.Shorts;
import java.util.Arrays;
  
class GFG {
    // Driver's code
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        // Creating a short array
        short[] arr = {};
  
        // Using Shorts.max() method to get the
        // maximum value present in the array
        // This should raise "IllegalArgumentException"
        // as the array is empty
        System.out.println("Maximum value is : " + Shorts.max(arr));
    }
}


Output:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException
    at com.google.common.base.Preconditions.checkArgument(Preconditions.java:108)
    at com.google.common.primitives.Shorts.max(Shorts.java:254)
    at GFG.main(File.java:19)
