Correct way to find max in an Array in Swift

Question

I\'ve so far got a simple (but potentially expensive) way:

var myMax = sort(myArray,>)[0]

And how I was taught to do it at school:

Answer 1

With Swift 1.2 (and maybe earlier) you now need to use:

let nums = [1, 6, 3, 9, 4, 6];
let numMax = nums.reduce(Int.min, combine: { max($0, $1) })

For working with Double values I used something like this:

let nums = [1.3, 6.2, 3.6, 9.7, 4.9, 6.3];
let numMax = nums.reduce(-Double.infinity, combine: { max($0, $1) })
