To find the largest key in a Python dictionary (which is implemented as a map), you can use the max()
function with the keys()
method of the dictionary. Here's an example:
main.py101 chars4 lines
In this example, the max()
function returns the largest string key in the dictionary, which is "foo". Note that the function works even if the keys are not strings, as long as they are comparable (e.g. integers, floats, etc.).
