16Example:
17 max([2, 1, 4, 3]) # Output: 4
18 max([], default=0) # supressing the error with default value, Output: 0
19 max("c", "b", "a", "Y", "Z") # Output: c
20 max("c", "b", "a", "Y", "Z", key=str.lower) # Output: Z
21  

1print(max(2, 3)) # Returns 3 as 3 is the largest of the two values
2print(max(2, 3, 23)) # Returns 23 as 23 is the largest of all the values

4list1 = [1, 2, 4, 5, 54]
5print(max(list1)) # Returns 54 as 54 is the largest value in the list
