Uniform MLE Upper Bound

Problem

For a uniform distribution on [0, theta], the maximum likelihood estimate of theta is the sample maximum.

Given the sample values, return the MLE.

Hint

The likelihood increases with theta until the largest observation.

case 1

in: [[1,5,3]]

expected: 5

case 2

in: [[0.5]]

expected: 0.5

case 3

in: [[2,2]]

expected: 2
