Item with minimum value or minimum value of function applied to items (FloatNamedArraylist, NamedArraylist, and UnicodeNamedArraylist classes)
[Introduced in Sirius Mods 7.8]
This page is under construction.
Syntax
%item = anyNal:MinimumItem[( [itemFunction])]
Syntax terms
%item | item |

anyNal | GenericNamedArraylist object |
itemFunction | A function that operates on the type of the items in the collection. It may be a local method or method variable or a class member (Variable, Property), and it must return an intrinsic value. The default itemFunction value is the special identity function, This, which simply returns the item value. |
Usage notes
- The optional itemFunction parameter lets you further manipulate the collection item values before performing the MinimumItem method's item matching. The itemFunction default (identity function This) fails against non-intrinsic values, however. If your collection items are not intrinsic values, you must specify an itemFunction function that can map the item values to intrinsic values.
