JavaScript Math min( ) Method
Below is the example of the Math min() Method.
- Example:
<script type=
"text/javascript"
>
document.write(
"When positive numbers are passed"
+
" as parameters: "
+ Math.min(10, 32, 2));
</script>
- Output:
When positive numbers are passed as parameters: 2
The Math.min() method is used to return the lowest-valued number passed in the method. The Math.min() method returns NaN if any parameter isn’t a number and can’t be converted into one. The min() is a static method of Math, therefore, it is always used as Math.min(), rather than as a method of a Math object created.
Syntax:
Math.min(value1, value2, ...)
Parameters: This method accepts as ingle parameter that can be used n number of times as mentioned above and described below:
- value: This values sent to math.min() method for finding the largest.
Return Value: The Math.min() method returns the smallest of the given numbers.
Below examples illustrates the Math min() method in JavaScript:
- Example 1:
Input : Math.min(10, 32, 2) Output: 2
- Example 2:
Input : Math.min(-10, -32, -1) Output: -32
- Example 3:
Input : Math.min() Output: Infinity
- Example 4:
Input : Math.min(10,2,NaN) Output: Nan
More codes for the above method are as follows:
More codes for the above method are as follows:
Program 1: When negative numbers are passed as parameters.
<script type= "text/javascript" > document.write( "Result : " + Math.min(-10, -32, -1)); </script> |
Output:
Result : -32
Program 2: When no parameters are passed.
<script type= "text/javascript" > document.write( "Result : " + Math.min()); </script> |
Output:
Result : Infinity
Program : When NaN is passed as a parameter.
<script type= "text/javascript" > document.write( "Result : " + Math.min(10,2,NaN)); </script> |
Output:
Result : NaN
