Returns the minimum value of several evaluated numeric expressions.

min_of(10, 1, -3, 17) == -3

Syntax

min_of (expr_1, expr_2 ...)

Arguments

  • expr_i: A scalar expression, to be evaluated.
  • All arguments must be of the same type.
  • Maximum of 64 arguments is supported.
  • Non-null values take precedence to null values.

Returns

The minimum value of all argument expressions.

Examples

Find the maximum value in an array:

print result=min_of(10, 1, -3, 17) 
result
-3

Find the minimum value in a data-table. Non-null values take precedence over null values:

datatable (A:int, B:int)
[5, 2,
10, 1,
int(null), 3,
1, int(null),
int(null), int(null)]
| project min_of(A, B)
result
