If I want to get the maximum of the first entry of a bunch of entries, then is there a way to do
this in shorthand? i.e. suppose I want the maximum of x1[1,1], x2[1,1], x3[1,1], x4[1,1], x5[1,1],
x6[1,1], x7[1,1] x8[1,1], then I thought it was possible to write: max(x1[1,1],...,x8[1,1]) but
this isn't giving me all of the values in between.
thanks,
florence
