MIN — Minimum value of an argument list#
-
MIN(A1, A2, A3, ...)#
Returns the argument with the smallest (most negative) value.
- Parameters:
A1 – The type shall be
INTEGER

A1
. (As a GNU extension, arguments of different kinds are permitted.)
- Returns:
The return value corresponds to the minimum value among the arguments, and has the same type and kind as the first argument.
