  • String max() Function in python returns the maximum alphabetical character from the string
  • String min() Function in python returns the minimum alphabetical character from the string

str2 = "salute-to-the-mother-earth!"
str3 = "salutetothemotherearth"

print "Minimum alphabetic character in the string1 is :"+ min(str1)
print "Minimum alphabetic character in the string2 is :"+ min(str2)
print "Minimum alphabetic character in the string3 is :"+ min(str3)
  • First min() function returns the space which is minimum character of that string
  • Second min() function returns the ! symbol which is minimum character of that string
  • Third min() function returns the “a” which is minimum character of that string
