SMALL(ar,n)

This function gives the $n^{th}$ smallest value in given array of numbers.
In $SMALL(ar,n)$ , $ar$ is the array or range of cells containing the data to be used in the function and $n$ is the position of the smallest number.
This function can be used to find data based on relative size.
Here $SMALL(ar,1)$ = Smallest value in the given set.
Suppose there is $m$ number of data points in a given array, then $SMALL(ar,m)$ = Largest value in the given set.
This function will give the result as error when

 1. The  $ar$  values are empty.
 2.  $n\leq 0$  or  $n$  is greater than the number of data points.
