public double max (double m, double n)

{

if (m>=n)

return m;

else

return n;

}

public int max (int m, int n)

{

if (m>=n)

return m;

else

return n;

}

public char max (char m, char n)

{

if (m>=n)

return m;

else

return n;

}

Explanation:

In each of the three methods declarations (Java) above, we are comparing two variables. m and n. The question did not specify what should happen when both variables are the same (i. e. m = = n). We make an assumption and set the condition to be if (m>=n) m should be returned as the greater.
