min(3F)                                                   min(3F)



NAME
     min, min0, amin0,  min1,  amin1,  dmin1  -  provide  Fortran
     minimum-value functions

SYNOPSIS
     integer i, j, k, l
     real a, b, c, d
     double precision dp1, dp2, dp3

     l=min(i, j, k)
     c=min(a, b)
     d=min(a, b, c)
     k=min0(i, j)
     a=amin0(i, j, k)
     i=min1(a, b)
     d=amin1(a, b, c)
     dp3=dmin1(dp1, dp2)

DESCRIPTION
     The minimum-value functions return the minimum of their
     arguments.  There may be any number of arguments.  min is
     the generic form, which can be used for all data types.  It
     takes its return type from that of its arguments, which must
     all be of the same type.  min0 returns the integer form of
     the minimum value of its integer arguments; amin0, the real
     form of its integer arguments; min1, the integer form of its
     real arguments; amin1, the real form of its real arguments;
     and dmin1, the double-precision form of its double-precision
     arguments.
