Description
- Description:
- Returns the array element with minimum numerical value. Engine solution to BIS_fnc_lowestNum and BIS_fnc_findExtreme. Therefore it is expected that supplied array consists of Numbers only. Booleans however are also supported and will be evaluated as Numbers: true - 1, false - 0. nil value treated as 0.
- Groups:
- Arrays
Syntax
- Syntax:
- selectMin array
- Parameters:
- array: Array - array of Numbers
- Return Value:
- Anything - element with minimum numerical value
Examples
- Example 1:
_min = selectMin [1,2,3,4,5]; //1- Example 2:
// Same as, for example: _min = _a min _b min _c min _d; // Only faster: _min = selectMin [_a,_b,_c,_d];
