If you want to have formula, here is one slight modification you could do:

Eval(Parse("dt << new column(\!"max_col\!",numeric,formula( Maximum(" || ":" || Concat Items(use_cols, ", :") || ")));"));

Hi , Tried below command,

Eval(Parse("dt << new column(\!"max_col\!",numeric,formula( Maximum(" || char(use_cols) || ")));"));

 

were use_cols having the column name,

but not able to find max value,

when checked formula found that " " is appending in MAXIMUM function,
 how to remove the " "
