How to find the maximum number in python?

Python finds the maximum number. We can use the max() method. The max() method returns the maximum value of the given parameter. The parameter can be a sequence.

The following is the syntax of the max() method:

max( x, y, z, .... )

Parameters

x -- Numeric expression.

y -- Numeric expression.

z -- Numeric expression.

Return value

Returns the maximum value of the given parameter.

The following shows an example of using the max() method:

Example (Python 2.0)

#!/usr/bin/python
 
print "max(80, 100, 1000) : ", max(80, 100, 1000)
print "max(-20, 100, 400) : ", max(-20, 100, 400)
print "max(-80, -20, -10) : ", max(-80, -20, -10)
print "max(0, 100, -400) : ", max(0, 100, -400)

The output result after running the above example is:

max(80, 100, 1000) :  1000
max(-20, 100, 400) :  400
max(-80, -20, -10) :  -10
max(0, 100, -400) :  100
