How to find the maximum value in a list without using Built-in Functions in python?

Question

I'd like to create a function that will print the max value within a list of numbers.

Answer 1

I dont know python but the pseudocode would look something like this

max = –2147483648

for each integer n in collection
   if n > max
      max = n

It loops through every number in a collection. If the number (n) is bigger than the previous maximum, the maximum is set to be equal to n.
