Lodash is a JavaScript library that works on the top of underscore.js. Lodash helps in working with arrays, strings, objects, numbers, etc.
The _.min() method is used to find the minimum element from the array. If the array is empty then undefined is returned.
Syntax:
_.min( array )
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below:
- array: It is the array that the method iterates over to get the minimum element.
Return Value: This method returns the minimum element from the array.
Example 1:
Javascript
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require( "lodash" ); // Use of _.min() method let min_val = _.min([]); // Printing the output console.log(min_val); |
Output:
undefined
Example 2:
Javascript
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require( "lodash" ); // Use of _.min() method let min_val = _.min([15, 7, 38, 46, 82]); // Printing the output console.log(min_val); |
Output:
7
Example 3:
Javascript
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require( "lodash" ); // Use of _.min() method let min_val = _.min([-15, 7, 38, -46, -82]); // Printing the output console.log(min_val); |
Output:
-82
