get lowest value in array java code example

Example 1: find min in array java

private static int findMin(int[] array) {
		int min = array[0];
		for(int i=1;i<array.length;i++) {
			if(min > array[i]) {
				min = array[i];
			}
		}
		return min;
	}

Example 2: finding min and max from given number in java

Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
        // Minimum And Maximum 
        int count = 0;
        int min = 0;
        int max = 0;
        boolean bugSolved = true;
		/* or we can use :
        int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
        int max = Integer.MIN_VALUE;
        */
		
        while (true){
            int cnt = count++;
            System.out.print("Enter Number #"+(cnt+1)+": ");
            boolean isValid = input.hasNextInt();
            if(isValid){
               int num = input.nextInt();
               /* if (bugSolved){
                   bugSolved = false;
                   min = num;
                   max = num;
               }  # Just remove this condition and 
               	boolean (bugSolved) at the top, if you use 
               	int min = Integer.MAX_VALUE and int max = 
                Integer.MIN_VALUE */
                if (num < min) {
                    min = num;
                }else if (num > max){
                    max = num;
                }
            }else{
                System.out.println("Invalid input..");
                break;
            }
            input.nextLine();
        }
        System.out.println("Min Number : " + min);
        System.out.println("Max Number : " + max);
