Max X and Max Y value in a generated set of points

Hello:

Occasional user here, not a coder, I'm hoping someone can help me out.

I would like to find the the maximum "x" value and "y" value in a array of points.  I have been hunting around but haven't been able to find any applicable examples.

For example if I have a simple vector like:

triangle  = [[0,0], [1,0], [0.5,1]] (my vector isn't this simple, its function generated with many points)

I would like to be able to determine  max_x_y = [1,1].  Using "max(triangle)"  [1,0] is returned (so I can extract the max "x" value), is there a way to get the max "y" value or should I just index through each "y" and store the max value?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

AJS

max_y = max([for(p = triangle) p.y]);
