BigDecimal min() Method in Java

Last Updated : 4 Dec, 2018
The java.math.BigDecimal.min(BigDecimal val) method in Java is used to compare two BigDecimal values and return the minimum of the two. Syntax:
public BigDecimal min(BigDecimal val)
Parameters: The function accepts a BigDecimal object val as parameter whose value is compared with that of this BigDecimal object and the minimum value is returned. Return Values: This method returns the BigDecimal whose value is the smaller of this BigDecimal and val. In case if both are equal, this BigDecimal is returned. Examples:
Input : a = 17.000041900, b = 17.0000418999
Output : 17.0000418999

Input : a = 235900000146, b = 236000000000
Output : 235900000146
Below programs will illustrate min() function of BigDecimal class: Program 1:
Output:
Minimum Value among 17.000041900 and 17.0000418999 is 17.0000418999
Program 2:
Output:
Length of string GeeksforGeeks is 13
Length of string GeeksClasses is 12
Minimum length is 12
