pandas.Series.max

Series.max(axis=None, out=None, skipna=True, level=None)

Parameters :

skipna : boolean, default True

Exclude NA/null values

level : int, default None

If the axis is a MultiIndex (hierarchical), count along a particular level, collapsing into a smaller Series

Returns :

max : float (or Series if level specified)

See also

Return, NA

Notes

This method returns the maximum of the values in the Series. If you want the index of the maximum, use Series.idxmax. This is the equivalent of the numpy.ndarray method argmax.
