Can any one explain max(list) and min(list)

Answer 1

Saurabh Sen, if we have strings in the list it behaves like this:

lst = ['h', 'a', 'x', 'e', 'ab']

print(min(lst)) # output = 'a'
print(max(lst)) # output = 'x'

# sorting will give:
print(sorted(lst)) # output = ['a', 'ab', 'e', 'h', 'x']

Answer 2

Lists in python have some methods (functions) that can be used very easy.

lst = [2,6,3,9,0]

As you can see, the smallest element is 0, the largest element is 9.
You can get these informations by using:

print(min(lst)) # output = 0
print(max(lst)) # output = 9

Answer 3

But when we have list that contains string then🤔
