Kesava N & Xan : UPDATED CODE - pretty and functional now! Since you asked me to elaborate: Remember, in a list, values are separated by commas. We use a regular expression (regex) to do this. This operation gives a string consisting of numbers and commas. This string is easily converted into a list of integers, dropping all empty values (""). Finally, max() is a built-in function in python to get the highest integer in a list. The ingenious part is the idea of converting all non-numericals into commas. The rest is pretty standard python stuff. https://code.sololearn.com/cO1c9BkFveS6/?ref=app

Why should it print that? You ask for the largest number, you input a number, so this is the largest number by default.
