PostfixMathCommandI, Serializable

public class MinMax
extends ArrayFunctionBase

Minimum and Maximum functions. Initialize with true for minimum and false for maximum. Since Jep 3.4 this function will flatten its arguments so min([1,[2,3]]) will be 1.

Since:

3.1.0

Constructor Details

MinMax

public MinMax(boolean isMin)

Constructor.

Parameters:

isMin - set to true for Minimum, false for Maximum

MinMax

public MinMax(Comparative comp)

Constructor allowing for a different Comparative object. The Comparative.compare(Object, Object) method will be used to compare elements.

Parameters:

comp - a Comparative object or subclass implemented less than or greater than.

Since:

3.4.0
