Question: Comparing 2 Matrices Element By Element

I have 2 matrices A and B, both 7x3. I want to compare each element in A with its corresponding element in B, taking the larger of the 2 values and creating a new Matrix C. Could someone suggest a method on how I would do this? I have seen examples of comparing to find equality between 2 elements but not a comparison to create a new matrix so I am finding this rather difficult.

Use the max function. Try:

 

A = rand(3);
B = rand(3);
C = max(A,B)
