MIN(n1,n2,n3,..)

This function gives the smallest number in a given set of values.
In $MIN(n1,n2,n3,...)$ $n1$ is required and $n2,n3...$ ,are optional.
Here $n1,n2,n3...$ , can be numbers, names, arrays or references that contain numbers.
Also logical values and text representation can be valid when we are entering directly.
In a referred array only numbers are considered.Empty cells,logical values or text in the referred array are not considered.
Suppose the arguments contain no numbers then this gives the value as 0.
This function will return the result as error when any one of the argument is non-numeric or the referred array cannot translated in to numbers.
suppose we want to consider the logical values in a referred array , we can include in the MINA function.

The syntax is to calculate minimum number in the given set of numbers in ZOS is .
- $n1,n2,n3...$ are the numbers.
For e.g., MIN(2..10,-11..-4)

=MIN(10,15,28,87)=10
=MIN(-5,-8,-15,0)=-15
=MIN(0.45,0.265,0.314,0.121)=0.121
=MIN(4,7,9,TRUE)=1
=MIN(4,7,9,FALSE)=0
