Dart List min/max value

You can now achieve this with an extension as of Dart 2.6:

import 'dart:math';

void main() {
  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].min; // returns 1
  [1, 2, 3, 4, 5].max; // returns 5
}

extension FancyIterable on Iterable<int> {
  int get max => reduce(math.max);

  int get min => reduce(math.min);
}

Assuming the list is not empty you can use Iterable.reduce :

import 'dart:math';

main(){
  print([1,2,8,6].reduce(max)); // 8
  print([1,2,8,6].reduce(min)); // 1
}

If you don't want to import dart: math and still wants to use reduce:

main() {
  List list = [2,8,1,6]; // List should not be empty.
  print(list.reduce((curr, next) => curr > next? curr: next)); // 8 --> Max
  print(list.reduce((curr, next) => curr < next? curr: next)); // 1 --> Min
}
