E-TE0605 — Axis specified for the two-argument form of min/max

Error Type	Type Error

Python exception	TypeError (builtin)

Message

`axis` cannot be specified when calling `jijmodeling.{function}` with two expressions.

Possible fix: drop `axis=`, or pass a single tensor-like expression instead.

({function} is min or max, depending on which function was called)

Cause

jm.min or jm.max was called with two positional arguments and an axis= keyword at the same time. The two-argument form picks the smaller or larger of two expressions, so there is no tensor whose axes could be reduced and axis= has no meaning there. The method forms count the receiver as the first argument, so x.min(y, axis=0) and x.max(y, axis=0) trigger this error as well.

Fix

Decide which of the two behaviors you want and adjust the call accordingly:

jm.min(a, b)         # smaller of two expressions: drop axis=
jm.min(A, axis=0)    # reduce a tensor along axis 0: pass a single expression
