Minimum Target

You are managing a construction project, and you need to determine the minimum height at which to set a scaffolding to ensure that it is safe for all workers. The heights of all workers are given in a list, and you must find the minimum height that is at least as tall as the tallest worker. The input consists of a single line with space-separated integers representing the heights of the workers. Your program should output the minimum required height. Example: Input: 150 160 155 170 165 Output: 170
