Summary

Function: float min( float x, float y );

Returns the lesser of two arbitrary values
Returns a float

• float x
• float y

If values x and y are equal, returns y

See also: Max

Specification

float min(float x, float y)
{
    return ( ( llAbs( x >= y ) ) * y ) + ( ( llAbs( x<y ) ) * x );
}

Examples

float value = min(10,20); //value == 10

float Max(float x,float y)
{
    return ( ( llAbs( x >= y ) ) * x ) + ( ( llAbs( x<y ) ) * y );
}

float Min(float x,float y)
{
    return ( ( llAbs( x >= y ) ) * y ) + ( ( llAbs( x<y ) ) * x );
}

// Copy the above functions to your program - the balance is mereley a set of unit tests
