Aggregate function that calculates the maximum across a group of values.
Example:
```
SELECT max(salary) FROM employees;
```
```
SELECT department, max(salary) FROM employees GROUP BY department;
```
If you need non-aggregate function to choose a maximum of two values, see `greatest`:
```
SELECT greatest(a, b) FROM table;
```
