WarningThis template is used on approximately 23,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
This template uses Lua:
  • Module:Math (sandbox)

This template evaluates and returns the minimum of a list of numeric values. The parameters can be numeric expressions that will be evaluated (using: +, -, *, /, ^, round, floor, mod, see: Help:expr). Any empty, missing, or invalid (non-numeric) parameters will be ignored. Invalid expressions show no warning, and should be checked some other way.

Usage

Syntax:

((min | value1 | value2 | value3 | value4 | ... ))

Examples:

((min)) →
((min|)) →
((min|-7)) → -7
((min|7|-5)) → -5
((min|7||-6|-4|)) → -6
((min|7|-5|-8)) → -8
((min|40*41|300+30)) → 330
((min|100+10|300+30|200+20)) → 110
((min|99| (2*3^2+1) /7 round 4)) → 2.7143
((min|$2.50|$2.10|9.00)) → 9
