I am not getting the desired result on applying the max() and min() function for dates.
Note: I have imported the files through pandas.Below is the data.
sample.csv--->

Current code:
import pandas as pd
import warnings
import datetime as dt
warnings.filterwarnings('ignore')
df = pd.read_csv("sample.csv")
#print(df.head())
df1=df
print(df1['last_Transaction'].min())
print(df1['last_Transaction'].max())
Output:
1/13/2018
8/15/2016
Why is the min date 1/13/2018? and max date 8/15/2016?
