Parameters
x − This is a numeric expression.
y − This is also a numeric expression.
z − This is also a numeric expression.
Return Value

Example
The following example shows the usage of the min() method.
#!/usr/bin/python3 print ("min(80, 100, 1000) : ", min(80, 100, 1000)) print ("min(-20, 100, 400) : ", min(-20, 100, 400)) print ("min(-80, -20, -10) : ", min(-80, -20, -10)) print ("min(0, 100, -400) : ", min(0, 100, -400))
Output
When we run the above program, it produces the following result −
min(80, 100, 1000) : 80 min(-20, 100, 400) : -20 min(-80, -20, -10) : -80 min(0, 100, -400) : -400
