maximumBy

maximumBy :: Foldable t => (a -> a -> Ordering) -> t a -> a

The largest element of a non-empty structure with respect to the given comparison function. Structure order is used as a tie-breaker: if there are multiple largest elements, the rightmost of them is chosen.

Examples

Basic usage:

>>> maximumBy (compare `on` length) ["Hello", "World", "!", "Longest", "bar"]
"Longest"

WARNING: This function is partial for possibly-empty structures like lists.
