Select minimum value from container through X++ code

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Rhushikesh R 758

Hi Experts,

If I have one container as below,

[100, 25, 30, 200]

And I want to select minimum value from it.

How can I achieve the same through X++ code? Please suggest.

And if not container, what functionality I can use to store the set of values and get the minimum from it at the end of while loop.

I have the same question (0)

    I hadn't noticed that SetEnumerator sorts the values in ascending order

    You can get min value with;

    min(100, 25, 30, 200)

    I don't remember that container and other similar types have a method that gives a direct min. Of course, you can find the smallest value by loop.

    If you ask me, the easiest is insert records into tmp table and select minOf(value), or order by value Asc and get firstOnly

    You can use a Set, they sort themselves. This example prints all your values in ascending order. So the first value that you get out of the SetEnumerator is the smallest one.

        Set mySet = new Set(Types::Integer);
    SetEnumerator setEnum;
    
    mySet.add(100);
    mySet.add(25);
    mySet.add(30);
    mySet.add(200);
    
    setEnum = mySet.getEnumerator();
    
    while (setEnum.moveNext())
    {
        info(strFmt("%1", setEnum.current()));
    }
