Introduction:

In this tutorial, we are going to explain how to use Python string max() function with basic syntax and many examples for better understanding.

max() is used to get a maximum value of a string.

Syntax:

max(string_variable_name)

Input Parameters:

• string_variable_name : where string is string variable whose minimum value needs to be found.

Example

alphanum='123abc'
data='WelcomePython'
# maximum value of  a string
print('max of alphanum:', max(alphanum))
print('max of data:', max(data))

Output

max of alphanum: c
max of data: y

In the above Example, If comparing values of string variable ‘alphanum’ ,value ‘c’ is the greater than other values due to its ASCII value as 99 so output of max(alphanum) is ‘c’ and for string variable ‘data’, ‘y’ is greater than others because ASCII value of ‘P’ is 80 and ‘y’ is 121 and all other alphabet’s ASCII values is present in between these two characters so output of max(data) is 121 which is indicated by ‘y’.
