This is where I have ended up. Without itertools and max its what I got currently. def maximum(listarg): myMax = listarg[0] for item in listarg: for i in listarg[listarg.index(item)+1:len(listarg)]: if myMax < i: myMax = i return myMax How would you simplify it? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
