Syntax : numpy.maximum(arr1, arr2, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, ufunc 'maximum')Parameters :arr1 :[array_like] Input array.arr2 :[array_like] Input array.out :[ndarray, optional] A location into which the result is stored.   -> If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to.   -> If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned.**kwargs :allows you to pass keyword variable length of argument to a function. It is used when we want to handle named argument in a function.where :[array_like, optional]True value means to calculate the universal functions(ufunc) at that position, False value means to leave the value in the output alone.Return : [ndarray or scalar] Result. The maximum of arr1 and arr2, element-wise. This is a scalar if both arr1 and arr2 are scalars.
