Math Class static float min(float f1 , float f2)

  • This method is available in java.lang package.
  • This method is used to return the minimum one of both the given arguments or in other words this method returns the smallest value of the given two arguments.
  • This is a static method so this method is accessible with the class name too.
  • The return type of this method is float, it returns the smallest element from the given two arguments.
  • This method accepts two arguments of float values.
  • This method does not throw any exception.

Syntax:

    public static float min(float f1, float f2){
    }

Parameter(s): float f1, float f2 – two float values, in which we have to find the smallest/minimum value.

Return value:

The return type of this method is float, it returns the smallest/minimum value.

Note:

  • If we pass "NaN" (Not a Number), it returns the same value i.e. "NaN".
  • If we pass zero (-0 or 0), it returns the 0.
  • If we pass the same values in both parameters, it returns the same value.

Java program to demonstrate example of min(float f1, float f2) method

// Java program to demonstrate the example of 
// min(float f1, float f2) method of Math Class.

public class MinFloatTypeMethod {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // declaring variables
        float f1 = -0.0f;
        float f2 = 0.0f;
        float f3 = -0.6f;
        float f4 = 124.58f;

        // displaying the values
        System.out.println("f1: " + f1);
        System.out.println("f2: " + f2);
        System.out.println("f3: " + f3);
        System.out.println("f4: " + f4);

        // Here , we will get (-0.0) because we are passing parameter 
        // whose value is (-0.0f,0.0f)
        System.out.println("Math.min(f1,f2): " + Math.min(f1, f2));

        // Here , we will get (0.0) and we are passing parameter 
        // whose value is (0.0f,124.58f)
        System.out.println("Math.min(f2,f4): " + Math.min(f2, f4));
    }
}

Output

E:\Programs>javac MinFloatTypeMethod.java

E:\Programs>java MinFloatTypeMethod
f1: -0.0
f2: 0.0
f3: -0.6
f4: 124.58
Math.min(f1,f2): -0.0
Math.min(f2,f4): 0.0
