JavaScript Math.min()

To find the smallest value from numbers with JavaScript, we use JavaScript Math.min(). The Math.min() is a static function, if everything is fine it will return the smallest value from the numbers. If you didn’t pass any parameters, it will return Infinity. If you pass any of the parameter is not a number or cannot be converted to a number, it will return NaN.

Return Value

• Smallest value : If everything is fine, it will return the smallest value from the numbers.
• NaN : If any of the parameter is not a number or cannot be converted to a number, it will return NaN.
• Infinity : If none parameters.

Example

Return smallest value from numbers:

Math.min(1, 5, 15, -15); // -15   

Find the smallest value from array.

?‍♂️?‍♂️?‍♂️
Math.min([1, 3, 6]); // NaN

???
const myArray = [1, 3, 6];
Math.min(...myArray); // 1

If no parameter, it will return infinity.

Math.min(); // Infinity  

Syntax

Math.min(number1, number2, ..., numberX)

Parameters

n1, n2, ..., nX – Passing one or more numbers to compare and return the smallest value.

More Example

Math.min(32, 10, 213); // 10
Math.min(0, -5, 3, -51, 390, 294); // -51
Math.min(-10, -100, 2, -800 ); // -800
Math.min(5, 15, -3.23); // -3.23
Math.min(-1.5, -2.3, -1.6); // -2.3

const myArray1 = [1, 3, 6];
const myArray2 = [50, -33, 6.52];
Math.min(...myArray1, -5, 2, ...myArray2, 3.21 ); // -33
