min

---

Minimum elements of an array.

---

Syntax

---

M = min(A)

[M, I] = min(A)

M = min(A, [], dim)

[M, I] = min(A, [], dim)

M = min(A, [], dim, 'omitnan')

[M, I] = min(A, [], dim, 'includenan')

[M, I] = min(A, [], 'all')

[M, I] = min(A, [], 'all', 'omitnan')

[M, I] = min(A, [], 'all', 'includenan')

C = min(A, B)

C = min(A, B, 'omitnan')

C = min(A, B, 'includenan')

Input argument

---

A

a variable

dim

a positive integer scalar (Dimension to operate along)

'omitnan'

ignore all NaN values. default behaviour. min will return the first element, if all elements are NaN.

'includenan'

include the NaN values.

'all'

it finds the minimum over all elements.

Output argument

---

M

minimum values of A.

I

Index to minimum values of A.

C

minimum elements from A or B.

Description

---

min find minimum values in an array.

If A is a matrix then M = min(A) is a row vector containing the minimum value of each column.

If A is a vector then M = min(A) will return the minimum of A.

If A If A is complex number then M = min(A) will return founded complex number with the largest magnitude.

Example

---

A = [1 2 3; 4 5 6];
M = min(A)
M = min(A, [], 'all')
