# --description--

|
|
|
Given a set of positive integers, write a function to order the integers in such a way that the concatenation of the numbers forms the largest possible integer and return this integer.

`maxCombine` should be a function.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(typeof maxCombine == 'function');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`maxCombine([1, 3, 3, 4, 55])` should return a number.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert(typeof maxCombine([1, 3, 3, 4, 55]) == 'number');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`maxCombine([1, 3, 3, 4, 55])` should return `554331`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.equal(maxCombine([1, 3, 3, 4, 55]), 554331);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`maxCombine([71, 45, 23, 4, 5])` should return `71545423`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.equal(maxCombine([71, 45, 23, 4, 5]), 71545423);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`maxCombine([14, 43, 53, 114, 55])` should return `55534314114`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.equal(maxCombine([14, 43, 53, 114, 55]), 55534314114);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`maxCombine([1, 34, 3, 98, 9, 76, 45, 4])` should return `998764543431`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.equal(maxCombine([1, 34, 3, 98, 9, 76, 45, 4]), 998764543431);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`maxCombine([54, 546, 548, 60])` should return `6054854654`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
assert.equal(maxCombine([54, 546, 548, 60]), 6054854654);
|
