what this command is used for max_index

Question

idk when I have to do this and why, could someone explain what it does?

Answer 1

Hugo Parada there is no such command or function called max_index in Python.
Maybe that is the name of a variable you saw in someone's code.

Answer 2

There is no command called "max_index". If you need to get array max index you can write: arr[-1]
Please send your code to be more specific.

Answer 3

I never heard of that function neither, I can only guess that it is a (custom-made, not pre-defined) function to return the index of the maximum value of a list:
