We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

Return the minimum value.
bash
npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-min
javascript
var min = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-min' );
#### min( x, y )
Returns the minimum value.
javascript
var v = min( 4.2, 3.14 );
// returns 3.14
v = min( +0.0, -0.0 );
// returns -0.0
If any argument is NaN
, the function returns NaN
.
javascript
var v = min( 4.2, NaN );
// returns NaN
v = min( NaN, 3.14 );
// returns NaN
javascript
var minstd = require( '@stdlib/random-base-minstd-shuffle' );
var min = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-min' );
var x;
var y;
var v;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
x = minstd();
y = minstd();
v = min( x, y );
console.log( 'min(%d,%d) = %d', x, y, v );
}
c
#include "stdlib/math/base/special/min.h"
#### stdlib_base_min( x, y )
Returns the minimum value.
c
double out = stdlib_base_min( 4.2, 3.14 );
// returns 3.14
out = stdlib_base_min( 0.0, -0.0 );
// returns -0.0
The function accepts the following arguments:
- x: [in] double
input value.
- y: [in] double
input value.
c
double stdlib_base_min( const double x, const double y );
