MIN(n1,n2,n3,..)

• $n1,n2,n3...$ are the numbers.

Description

• This function gives the smallest number in a given set of values.
• In Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle 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.

ZOS Section

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

Examples

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