container : Array, predefined Array for holding result

The MinimumEvery(A, B) command computes the minimum of each pair A[k] and B[k], storing the minimum value in the corresponding k-th element of an Array with datatype float[8], which is then returned.

The MaximumEvery(A, B) command computes the maximum of each pair A[k] and B[k], storing the maximum value in the corresponding k-th element of an Array with datatype float[8], which is then returned.

The Vectors A and B must have the same number of elements.

Before the code performing the computation runs, A and B are converted to datatype float[8] if they do not have that datatype already. For this reason, it is most efficient if A and B have this datatype beforehand.

If the container=C option is provided, then the results are put into C and C is returned. With this option, no additional memory is allocated to store the result. The container must be an Array of size $N$ having datatype float[8], where $N$ is the size of A and B.

The SignalProcessing[MinimumEvery] and SignalProcessing[MaximumEvery] commands are thread-safe as of Maple 17.
