The min and max Functions

Python
has two built-in functions named min and max that work with sequences.

The
min function accepts a sequence, such as a list, as an argument and returns the
item that has the lowest value in the sequence.

The
max function accepts a sequence, such as a list, as an argument and returns the
item that has the highest value in the sequence.

my_list
= [5, 4, 3, 2, 50, 40, 30]

print('The
lowest value is', min(my_list))

print('The
highest value is', max(my_list))
