Min[ <Number a>, <Number b> ]
Gives the minimum of the given numbers a and b.
Example:
Min[12, 15] yields 12.
Min[ <List of Numbers> ]
Gives the minimum of the numbers within the list.
Example:
Min[{-2, 12, -23, 17, 15}] yields -23.
Note: If the input consists of non-numeric objects, then Min[] considers the numbers associated with those objects. For example, Min[List of Segments] will yield the minimum segment length.
Min[ <Function>, <left-x>, <right-x> ]
Calculates (numerically) the minimum point for function in the given interval. Function should have only one minimum point in the interval.
Min[ <Interval> ]
Gives the lower bound of the interval.
Example:
Min[2 < x < 3] yields 2 .
Note: Opened and closed intervals are not distinguished.

CAS Syntax

Min[ <Number a>, <Number b> ]
Gives the minimum of the given numbers a and b.
Example:
Min[12, 15] yields 12.
Min[ <List of Numbers> ]
Gives the minimum of the numbers within the list.
Example:
Min[{-2, 12, -23, 17, 15}] yields -23.
