Bug 17160 (https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=17160) leads me
to ask this. In R, should max(...) equals max(c(...)) ? If 'max' have both
numeric and character arguments, should lexicographic sorting be used for all?
> max("", 3, 10)
[1] "3"
> max("", c(3, 10))
[1] "10"
> range("", c(3, 10))[2]
[1] "3"
Should all above have the same result?
