Is this what you were after:

Code:
awk '
   { for(i=1;i<=NF;i++) {
      max=$i>max?$i:max;
      if(!(++cnt%3)) {
          print max;
          max=-999;
   }}}
   END { if(cnt%3) print max }' file

@Corona688 - One word per phone call - Nice analogy, I'll file that one away for later use

ns_rand(3aolserver)					    AOLserver Built-In Commands 				       ns_rand(3aolserver)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       ns_rand - commands

SYNOPSIS

       ns_rand ?max?
_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       ns_rand	generates  a  cryptographically-secure random number.  If max is not specified, the random number is a floating-point value n such
       that 0.0 <= n < 1.0.

       If max is specified, it must be a positive integer between 0 and 2147483647.  The return value is an integer value such that 0 <= n <= (max
       - 1).

       Internally  ns_rand is implemented with the drand48(3) and lrand48(3) standard library functions.  An internal random seed is generated the
       first time ns_rand is called after the server starts.

EXAMPLES

	nscp> ns_rand
	0.39938485692

	nscp> ns_rand 10
	7
