### Step

1. Drag a `button` component to the canvas and open the `Action` tab. Select the `press` event of the button and drag the `Log.write` function to the event flow.
2. Call the function `List.max` inside the `Log.write` function.
3. Then call the function `Conversion.toList` inside the `List.max` function.
4. Enter the values of the list to find the max from.
