Find Lowest Value

<?php
echo min(2, 3, 1, 6, 7); // 1
echo min(array(2, 4, 5)); // 2

echo min(0, 'hello'); // 0
echo min('hello', 0); // hello
echo min('hello', -1); // -1

// With multiple arrays, min compares from left to right
// so in our example: 2 == 2, but 4 < 5
$val = min(array(2, 4, 8), array(2, 5, 1)); // array(2, 4, 8)

// If both an array and non-array are given, the array
// is never returned as it's considered the largest
$val = min('string', array(2, 5, 7), 42); // string
?>

echo min(2, 3, 1, 6, 7); // 1
echo min(array(2, 4, 5)); // 2

echo min(0, 'hello'); // 0
echo min('hello', 0); // hello
echo min('hello', -1); // -1

// With multiple arrays, min compares from left to right
// so in our example: 2 == 2, but 4 < 5
$val = min(array(2, 4, 8), array(2, 5, 1)); // array(2, 4, 8)

// If both an array and non-array are given, the array
// is never returned as it's considered the largest
$val = min('string', array(2, 5, 7), 42); // string
