The Find Array Minimum action returns
the minimum value for a range of array elements.
Parameter descriptions
The action provides these parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Data type | The data type of the array elements. The list of the available data types for the node. For example, BYTE, WORD, DWORD, or INT1, INT2, INT4 and so forth. |
| Maximum number of elements | The value indicates the maximum number of array elements that can be passed into the array variable. The maximum number of elements can be any size. |
Input tab
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Input Array | To find the minimum value within an
array, the array must first be passed
into the action. The starting element
for the minimum calculation is entered
in the Value
column. The values for Logical and Count columns will change based on the Data type and Maximum number of elements parameters specified in the action definition. |
| Input
Count
|
The Input Count is
the number of items actually passed
into the action. This number must be less than or equal to the maximum number of elements in the array. If the count exceeds the Maximum number of elements, an error will occur at runtime. |
Output tab
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Min Value | The minimum value of the array elements, based on the Input Array and Input Count parameters. |
| Index of Min
Value
|
The index in the array for the
minimum value of the array elements,
based on the Input
Array and Input
Count parameters. The index starts at zero for the first item in the array; thus, the maximum number is N-1 where N is the number of items in the array. The index is optional as you do not have to map the result. |
