nums[:2] creates a new tuple from nums by obtaining the elements whose index is no bigger than 2. min() and max() functions return the minimum and the maximum of their arguments. Similarly, abs() is for absolute value. Putting things together, max(min(nums[:2]), abs(-42)) = max(min((55, 44)), 42) = max(44, 42) = 44

Try to resolve the expression: max(min(nums[:2]), abs(-42))) nums[:2] ==> [55,44] then max(min([55,44]), 42))==> max(44,42) ==> 44

The output is 44. Did you try running it in the code playground?
