Aim: To create user-defined function in R to find maximum of three numbers.

Syntax:

To create function in R following syntax is used:

    Function-name=function(parameter)
    {
        #body of function
    }

Where,

• Function-name is the name of user-defined function.
• function is the keyword which is used in R to create function
• #body of function basically defines the property of function.

Code:

    maximum=function(a,b,c)
    {
	    max=a;
	    if(b>max)
		    max=b;
	    if(c>max)
		    max=c;
	    return(max);
    }

Output

Hence, we successfully created function in R which will calculate maximum among three numbers in R.
