Awk search for max and min field values

hi, i have an awk script and I managed to figure out how to search the max value but Im having difficulty in searching for the min field value.


BEGIN {FS=","; max=0}
NF == 7 {if (max < $6) max = $6;}
END { print man, min}

where $6 is the column of a field separated by a comma
