T-SQL function to Get Maximum of values from the same row

--SELECT dbo.GetMax(23, 45, 64, 22, 18, 224, 74, 138, 1, 98, 11, 86, 198)
--Naturally adjust data type to match what you actually need for your specific values
I've created a set of functions (e.g. GetMaxOfDates3 , GetMaxOfDates13 )to find max of up to 13 Date values.
CREATE FUNCTION GetMaxOfDates13 (
@value01 DateTime = NULL,  
@value02 DateTime = NULL,
@value03 DateTime = NULL,
@value04 DateTime = NULL,
@value05 DateTime = NULL,
@value06 DateTime = NULL,
@value07 DateTime = NULL,
@value08 DateTime = NULL,
@value09 DateTime = NULL,
@value10 DateTime = NULL,
@value11 DateTime = NULL,
@value12 DateTime = NULL,
@value13 DateTime = NULL
)
RETURNS DateTime
AS
BEGIN
RETURN (
SELECT TOP 1 value
FROM (
SELECT @value01 AS value UNION ALL
SELECT @value02 UNION ALL
SELECT @value03 UNION ALL
SELECT @value04 UNION ALL
SELECT @value05 UNION ALL
SELECT @value06 UNION ALL
SELECT @value07 UNION ALL
SELECT @value08 UNION ALL
SELECT @value09 UNION ALL
SELECT @value10 UNION ALL
SELECT @value11 UNION ALL
SELECT @value12 UNION ALL
SELECT @value13
) AS [values]
ORDER BY value DESC    
)
END --FUNCTION
GO
CREATE FUNCTION GetMaxOfDates3 (
@value01 DateTime = NULL,  
@value02 DateTime = NULL,
@value03 DateTime = NULL
)
RETURNS DateTime
AS
BEGIN
RETURN dbo.GetMaxOfDates13(@value01,@value02,@value03,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL)
END --FUNCTION
 I haven't considered UNPIVOT solution at the time of writing these functions, but it probably will be better.
