FMIN(3P)		   POSIX Programmer's Manual		      FMIN(3P)

PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the	 corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.

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
       The  functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
       ISO C standard. Any conflict between the	 requirements  described  here
       and  the	 ISO C	standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1‐2008
       defers to the ISO C standard.

       These functions shall determine the  minimum  numeric  value  of	 their
       arguments.   NaN	 arguments  shall  be  treated as missing data: if one
       argument 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.
