Python | Maximum and Minimum in a Set

In this article, we will learn how to get the maximum and minimum element in a set in Python, using the built-in functions of Python.
Examples:

Input : set = ([8, 16, 24, 1, 25, 3, 10, 65, 55])
Output : max is 65

Input : set = ([4, 12, 10, 9, 4, 13])
Output : min is 4

Recommended: Please try your approach on {IDE} first, before moving on to the solution.

max() in a Set

The built-in function max() in Python is used to get the maximum of all the elements in a set.

# Python code to get the maximum element from a set 
def MAX(sets): 
    return (max(sets)) 
      
# Driver Code 
sets = set([8, 16, 24, 1, 25, 3, 10, 65, 55]) 
print(MAX(sets)) 

Output:

min() in a Set

# Python code to get the minimum element from a set 
def MIN(sets): 
    return (min(sets)) 
      
# Driver Code 
sets = set([4, 12, 10, 9, 4, 13]) 
print(MIN(sets)) 

Output:
