Is there a minimum and maximum function implemented in AppGameKit tier 1 somewhere?

I'm having a hard time writing one that works nicely. At this point I've resorted to



...etc. It feels like I'm clumsily reinventing a wheel.

It's mean time. *averages*

No ; and AppGameKit does not have variable arguments.

You can condense the number of functions to just one...

myAnswer# = min(a, b)
myAnswer# = min(a, min(b,c))
myAnswer# = min(a, min(b,min(c,d)))

Alternatively you could fill an array and pass that into a function that looks for the minimum value from any number of array values:


EDIT: This requires AppGameKit V2 to work!

Thanks, baxslash and BatVink. The solution baxslash proposed is working perfectly for me.

I like Baxslash' solution too, it's a good use of the new array.length parameter.
