Min
MIN Function¶
The MIN function in Excel returns the smallest number in a set of values. It ignores logical values, empty cells, and text.
Syntax:¶
MIN(number1, [number2], ...)
- number1: The first number or range from which you want to find the smallest number.
- number2, ... (optional): Additional numbers or ranges.
Examples:¶
=MIN(3, 5, 1, 8)would return1, since 1 is the smallest number in the set.- If cells A1:A5 contain the values
10, 15, 5, 20, 25, the formula=MIN(A1:A5)would return5.
Note: While
MINis primarily used for numeric values, it can be used in a range that includes text values. In such cases, text and logical values are ignored.Note: Currently Codcel only supports MIN for numerical values.
