Just the same things that you can compare with, say, < . I believe in 2.5 max and min will also accept a key= argument (like sorted etc) to tweak what to compare, so max(thelist, key=f) should then work (but in 2.4 you do need to more explicitly use some kind of decorate-sort-undecorate idiom, as explained in previous posts).
