It's still overly complicated.


This is where I have ended up. Without itertools and max its what I got 
currently.

def maximum(listarg):
     myMax = listarg[0]
     for item in listarg:
         for i in listarg[listarg.index(item)+1:len(listarg)]:
             if myMax < i:
                 myMax = i

     return myMax

How would you simplify it?


In English rather than Python, how do you find the maximum element in a list?
