⚡_AruN_⚡ your question / code sample is truncated since the *question section* can only take a limited number of characters as input. it would be helpful if you could add the complete code you are talking about to your post but not only 1 line.

⚡_AruN_⚡ , first of all: > we should *not* use *max* as a variable name, since this also is the name of built-in function of python. > using reserved names for objects like variables (and others), can lead to unexpexted results or behavior of the program. > max = 0 is the declaration and initialization of a variable with the value of 0. in the current code this step is *not required*, since max is created inside the first *if... else...* conditional. in other cases (if max will be used for comparison in the first conditional) it may be necessary. > max = max means that the variable max gets assigned to itself. this step is *not required* and the complete *else* clause can be removed.
