Add min, max functions to the Array class

I was looking for the listmax function but it says: "Deprecated, use the array class"

But the array class does not have a max property. So it would be nice if max, min would be added.

Other option would be if the max method of the Math class would accept an array but I guess that is less intuitive

@steven.hamoen, until there is a method, you can use a table.query ordered ascending or descending to get min or max value.

table.query on an array

@Jörg Vogel Thanks I'm aware of that but this is case of just 9 numbers in a table so a query would create a lot of overhead. I currently used the findmax() function.

We have plans to add an overload to Math.min and Math.max that takes an array. This should satisfy this request and this one.

No, not yet. We might be able to get it into 19.2.
