Min

Min is a mathematical function that returns the minimum value in a group of numeric values, rows, columns, or cells.

Syntax:

Min(arguments)

where arguments is one or more of the following values:

Argument	Description
numeric	A numeric value. For example, Min(10,20,30) returns the value 10. Numeric values can include decimals and negative values. See Numeric Arguments.
row, column, or cell reference	A pointer to a row, column, or cell within a grid. References can be specified in several ways. The reference syntax is: GridName.GridElement[segment(range)].Property. See Row, Column, or Cell Reference Arguments.
function	An embedded function. See Mathematical Functions.

Argument

Description

numeric

A numeric value. For example, Min(10,20,30) returns the value 10.

Numeric values can include decimals and negative values. See Numeric Arguments.

row, column, or cell reference

A pointer to a row, column, or cell within a grid.

References can be specified in several ways. The reference syntax is: GridName.GridElement[segment(range)].Property. See Row, Column, or Cell Reference Arguments.

function

An embedded function.

See Mathematical Functions.

Examples:

Return the minimum value in rows 1, 6, and 8:

Min (row[1], row[6], row[8])

Calculate the minimum of the sums of aggregate rows:

Min(row[1].sum, row[2].sum, row[3].sum)
