SMALL(Array,k)


  • is the set of numbers.
  • is the position of a smallest number.
    • SMALL(),returns the k-th smallest value in a data set.

Description

  • This function gives the   smallest value in given array of numbers.
  • In  ,   is the array or range of cells containing the data to be used in the function and   is the position of the smallest number.
  • This function can be used to find data based on relative size.
  • Here   = Smallest value in the given set.
  • Suppose there is   number of data points in a given array, then  = Largest value in the given set.
  • This function will give the result as error when
 1. The   values are empty.
 2.   or   is greater than the number of data points.

Examples

  • =SMALL([2,7,9,10,67,9,45,18,0,-1,-5,70,52,39],2) = -1
  • =SMALL([2,7,9,10,67,9,45,18,0,-1,-5,70,52,39],7) = 9
  • =SMALL([2,7,9,10,67,9,45,18,0,-1,-5,70,52,39],1) = -5
  • =SMALL([2,7,9,10,67,9,45,18,0,-1,-5,70,52,39],14) = 70
