NAME

       fmin, fminf, fminl - determine minimum numeric value of two floating-point numbers

SYNOPSIS

       #include <math.h>

       double fmin(double x, double y);
       float fminf(float x, float y);
       long double fminl(long double x, long double y);

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions shall determine the minimum numeric value of their arguments. NaN arguments shall be treated as missing data: if one argu-
       ment is a NaN and the other numeric, then these functions shall choose the numeric value.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the minimum numeric value of their arguments.

       If just one argument is a NaN, the other argument shall be returned.

       If x and y are NaN, a NaN shall be returned.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES

       None.

APPLICATION USAGE

       None.

RATIONALE

       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS

       None.
