Return Maximum Value of Pandas Index in Python

To return the maximum value of the Pandas Index, use the index.max() method. At first, import the required libraries -

import pandas as pd

Creating Pandas index

index = pd.Index([10, 20, 70, 40, 90, 50, 25, 30])

Display the Pandas index −

print("Pandas Index...\n",index)

Get the maximum value −

print("\nMaximum value..\n", index.max())

Example

Following is the code −

import pandas as pd

# Creating Pandas index
index = pd.Index([10, 20, 70, 40, 90, 50, 25, 30])

# Display the Pandas index
print("Pandas Index...\n",index)

# Return the number of elements in the Index
print("\nNumber of elements in the index...\n",index.size)

# Return the dtype of the data
print("\nThe dtype object...\n",index.dtype)

# get the maximum value
print("\nMaximum value..\n", index.max())

Output

This will produce the following output −

Pandas Index...
Int64Index([10, 20, 70, 40, 90, 50, 25, 30], dtype='int64')

Number of elements in the index...
8

The dtype object...
int64

Maximum value..
90
