Answer 1

Use the builtin function max.

Example: max(2, 4) returns 4.

Just for giggles, there's a min as well...should you need it. :P

Answer 2

numberList=[16,19,42,43,74,66]

largest = numberList[0]

for num2 in numberList:

    if num2 > largest:

        largest=num2

print(largest)

gives largest number out of the numberslist without using a Max statement

Answer 3

max(number_one, number_two)

Answer 4

max()

Answer 5

(num1>=num2)*num1+(num2>num1)*num2 will return the maximum of two values.

Answer 6

max(value,run)

should do it.
