 Retrieves the maximum value of an `array`. If `callback` is passed, it will be executed for each value in the `array` to generate the criterion by which the value is ranked. The `callback` is bound to `thisArg` and invoked with three arguments; *(value, index, collection)*.
 
 #### Arguments
-1. `collection` *(Array|Object|String)*: The collection to iterate over.
+1. `collection` *(Array|Object)*: The collection to iterate over.
 2. `[callback]` *(Function)*: The function called per iteration.
 3. `[thisArg]` *(Mixed)*: The `this` binding of `callback`.
