About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
# minabsn
[![NPM version][npm-image]][npm-url] [![Build Status][test-image]][test-url] [![Coverage Status][coverage-image]][coverage-url]
> Return the minimum absolute value.
## Installation
```bash
npm install @stdlib/math-base-special-minabsn
```
Alternatively,
- To load the package in a website via a `script` tag without installation and bundlers, use the [ES Module][es-module] available on the [`esm`][esm-url] branch (see [README][esm-readme]).
- If you are using Deno, visit the [`deno`][deno-url] branch (see [README][deno-readme] for usage intructions).
- For use in Observable, or in browser/node environments, use the [Universal Module Definition (UMD)][umd] build available on the [`umd`][umd-url] branch (see [README][umd-readme]).
The [branches.md][branches-url] file summarizes the available branches and displays a diagram illustrating their relationships.
To view installation and usage instructions specific to each branch build, be sure to explicitly navigate to the respective README files on each branch, as linked to above.
## Usage
```javascript
var minabsn = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-minabsn' );
```
#### minabsn( \[x\[, y\[, ...args]]] )
Returns the minimum absolute value.
```javascript
var v = minabsn( -4.2, 3.14 );
// returns 3.14
v = minabsn( +0.0, -0.0 );
// returns +0.0
v = minabsn( 4.2, 3.14, -1.0, 6.8 );
// returns 1.0
```
If any argument is `NaN`, the function returns `NaN`.
```javascript
var v = minabsn( 4.2, NaN );
// returns NaN
v = minabsn( NaN, 3.14 );
// returns NaN
```
If not provided any arguments, the function returns `+infinity`.
```javascript
var v = minabsn();
// returns Infinity
```
## Notes
- When an empty set is considered a subset of the extended reals (all real numbers, including positive and negative infinity), positive infinity is the greatest lower bound. Similar to zero being the identity element for the sum of an empty set and to one being the identity element for the product of an empty set, positive infinity is the identity element for the minimum, and thus, the function returns `+infinity`.
## Examples
```javascript
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var minabsn = require( '@stdlib/math-base-special-minabsn' );
var x;
var y;
var v;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
x = ( randu()*1000.0 ) - 500.0;
y = ( randu()*1000.0 ) - 500.0;
v = minabsn( x, y );
console.log( 'minabs(%d,%d) = %d', x, y, v );
}
```
