Python3 min() and max()

On a Linux Debian 12 with Python 3.11.2,
I get this :

l = [ 1, 2, 3 ]
min(l)
1
max(l)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: 'int' object is not callable

Why the max() function doesn’t work ?

Thanks.

I expected that max(l) return 3

>Solution :

I think you must have reassigned the builtin max function of python, to a integer, hence creating a new max(int variable), it could have happened like this

max = 5
l = [1,2,3]
max(l)

that’s why you could have gotten the error that "int" object is not callable, you try

1. changing you code, (not declaring a max variable)
2. Restore the Built-in max Function:

import builtins
max = builtins.max
