findmaximum's Introduction

Find the maximum of a list of numbers

Aim:

To write a program to find the maximum of a list of numbers.

Equipment’s required:

Hardware – PCs
Anaconda – Python 3.7 Installation / Moodle-Code Runner

Algorithm:

Get the list of marks as input
Use the sort() function or max() function or use the for loop to find the maximum mark.
Return the maximum value

Program:

i) # To find the maximum of marks using the list method sort.

# Program to mark the maximum of marks using the list method sort.
# Developed by: GANESH G.
# Register No:212223230059
def max_marks(marks):
    marks.sort()
    large=marks[-1]
    return large

ii) # To find the maximum marks using the list method max().

# Program to find the maximum marks using the list method max().
# Developed by: GANESH G.
# Register No: 212223230059
def max_marks(marks):
    large=max(marks)
    return large

iii) # To find the maximum marks without using builtin functions.

# Program to find the maximum marks without using builtin functions.
# Developed by: GANESH G.
# Register No: 212223230059
def max_marks(marks):
    max_mark=0
    for i in marks:
        if i>max_mark:
            max_mark=i
    return max_mark

Output:

i) # To find the maximum of marks using the list method sort. ii) # To find the maximum marks using the list method max(). iii) # To find the maximum marks without using builtin functions.
