gs_max = @(x) -gs_min(-x)
That is, if you know how to find the min then you can find the max by finding the minimum of the negative of the values.

Example:
A = [15 -3 8 17 5]
min(A) = -3
-min(-A) = -min([-15 +3 -8 -17 -5]) = -(-17) = 17
max(A) = 17
So whatever process you have for finding minimum, feed in the negative of the data, find the minimum of that, and take the negative of the result, and you will have the maximum of the original data.

Finding the maximum would work the same way as with the minimum except that 1) you need to work in an interval for which your function is unimodal with a maximum, and 2) with reference to the site

the reversals that are mentioned in the “Algorithm” section are applied.
