python中max函数有重复数字时,Python中的Max函数返回错误结果

I am trying to find the Max and Min in a set of numbers from a CSV file. My code keeps returning the wrong number for Max function for some rows. Here is my code:

with open('Cortex_vs_Liver_trial.csv', newline='') as infile:

reader = csv.reader(infile)

for row in reader:

print(row)

print('The maximun is:', max(row))

print('The minimum is:', min(row))

An example of my output:

['86.21', '100.00', '96.30']

The maximun is: 96.30

The minimum is: 100.00

I am not sure what I have done wrong. Some advice would be appreciated.

Your list elements are strings. You need to convert them to float to avoid comparing lexicographically (alphabetically, one character at a time, where '100' < '2' because 1 < 2)

numrow = [float(x) for x in row]

print('The maximun is:', max(numrow))

print('The minimum is:', min(numrow))

Unless you actually want strings, in which case don't make the new list, and just pass key=float to your max() function:

max(numrow, key=float)
