Thank you very much, that is very interesting and precise, I didn't thought about max() cause my tree is not binary and it takes only 2 argument, also I did not know that I could pass a for as argument! Doing a little research would have saved me a lot of struggle.

@Janbure Look at max() doc and you'll see that it has two signatures: a single iterable argument(like this case) or n arguments(so they can be more than 2). You can also specify a keyword only parameter key, just like in sort.

@Janbure: That max call uses what's known as a "generator expression". They're really handy for creating an iterable object on the fly.
