Finding a maximum value in a list

Greetings,

Does anyone know how I can select or know the value of the highest value in a list of numbers?
I'm sure this is a stupid question for most of you, so I apologize, but if anyone would be so kind, I'd be really appreciative.
Thank you very much

Hi,

I have the same problem. In a list of thousands, even if I sort, 1000 is smaller than 2.

Bounds could be work, but I don't know how to extrapolate the two numbers.

Thank you

Here is a definition for finding min and max values of a list without having to download another item for your library

Where can these Max Value and Min Value components be found in GH? I don't see them in the Sets panel or in the keyword search.

There is a tiny mistake in the def. The index for the min Value must be 0.

Wow, you're right, David Smith's code is bad in several ways. Renaming components is always a bad idea, as far as I'm concerned ('List Item' to 'Min Value' and 'Max Value').

This is all you need:
