SetAttributes[f, Listable];

f[x_] := Piecewise[{{1, x < 1}, {2, x > 1}}]

Max[f[Range[0, 1, .001]]]

1

Hi,

If f is deined according to

f[x_] := Piecewise[{{1, x < 1}, {2, x > 1}}]

then

Max[f[Range[0, 1, .001]]]

does not yield the desired result. What's the proper way to approach
this?

Thanks!

Aaron
