max_element c++

The max_element function in C++ returns an iterator pointing to the element with the largest value in the range [first, last). It takes two arguments: the beginning and the end of the range. Here's an example of how to use it:

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <vector>

int main() {
    std::vector<int> v = {3, 9, 4, 7, 5, 9};
    auto it = std::max_element(v.begin(), v.end());
    std::cout << "The largest element is " << *it << " at position " << std::distance(v.begin(), it) << std::endl;
    return 0;
}
