How to get the max value between two elements of two separate arrays?

Hello everyone, thanks for reading

What I'm trying to do is this:

I have these two arrays:

a= [1,3,4,6]

b= [2,2,5,4]

I want to get a new 'c' array with the max values of a comparison between each element of 'a' and 'b'

this -----------> c= [2,3,5,6]

Try this...

a= [1,3,4,6];
b= [2,2,5,4];

max([a;b])

ans = 1×4

2 3 5 6

The efficient MATLAB approach:

a = [1,3,4,6];
b = [2,2,5,4];
c = max(a,b)

c = 1×4

2 3 5 6
