MIN

Returns the smallest number in a set of values.

Syntax

MIN(number1,number2, ...)

Number1, number2, ... are 1 to 30 numbers for which you want to find the minimum value.

Remarks

You can specify arguments that are numbers, empty, logical values, or text representations of numbers. Arguments that are error values or text that cannot be translated into numbers cause errors.
If an argument is a column reference, only numbers are used. If logical values and text should not be ignored, use MINA instead.
If the arguments contain no numbers, MIN returns 0.

Example

Col1	Col2	Col3	Col4	Col5	Formula	Description (Result)
10	7	9	27	2	=MIN([Col1],[Col2],[Col3],[Col4],[Col5])	Smallest of the numbers (2)
10	7	9	27	2	=MIN([Col1],[Col2],[Col3],[Col4],[Col5],0)	Smallest of the numbers and 0 (0)
