Introduction:

In this tutorial, we are going to explain how to use Python min of list function with basic syntax and many examples for better understanding.

Python min of list is used to get a minimum value of a list.

Syntax:

min(list_variable_name)

Input Parameters:

• list_variable_name : where list is a list variable whose type needs to be found.

Example

number=[1,2,3]
alphanumeric=['x','A','abc']
# minimum value of list
print('min of number:', min(number))
print('min of alphanumeric:', min(alphanumeric))

Output

min of number: 1
min of alphanumeric: A

In the above Example, If comparing values of list variable ‘number’ ,value ‘1’ is smaller than value ‘2’ and ‘3’ so output of min(number) is ‘1’ and for list variable ‘alphanumeric’, let’s take ASCII code of  list value ‘x’ is 120,’A’ is 65 and in ‘abc’ value, ASCII code of ‘a’ is 97. If comparing ASCII values, 65 is smaller than 120 and 97 so output of min(alphanumeric) is 65 which is indicated by ‘A’.

In this tutorial, you have learned how to use python min of list by using min(list) function.

But remember to understand the concept very well, you need to practice more.

Hopefully, it was clear and concise.
