Class Min

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.statistics.descriptive.Min
All Implemented Interfaces:
DoubleConsumer, DoubleSupplier, IntSupplier, LongSupplier, DoubleStatistic, StatisticAccumulator<Min>, StatisticResult
public final class Min extends Object implements DoubleStatistic, StatisticAccumulator<Min>
Returns the minimum of the available values. Uses Math.min as an underlying function to compute the minimum.
  • The result is positive infinity if no values are added.
  • The result is NaN if any of the values is NaN.
  • The value -0.0 is considered strictly smaller than 0.0.

This class is designed to work with (though does not require) streams.

This implementation is not thread safe. If multiple threads access an instance of this class concurrently, and at least one of the threads invokes the accept or combine method, it must be synchronized externally.

However, it is safe to use accept and combine as accumulator and combiner functions of Collector on a parallel stream, because the parallel implementation of Stream.collect() provides the necessary partitioning, isolation, and merging of results for safe and efficient parallel execution.

    • create

      public static Min create()
      Creates an instance.

      The initial result is positive infinity.

      Returns:
      Min instance.

    • of

      public static Min of(double... values)
      Returns an instance populated using the input values.

      The result is NaN if any of the values is NaN.

      When the input is an empty array, the result is positive infinity.

      Parameters:
      values - Values.
      Returns:
      Min instance.

    • accept

      public void accept(double value)
      Updates the state of the statistic to reflect the addition of value.
      Specified by:
      accept in interface DoubleConsumer
      Parameters:
      value - Value.

    • getAsDouble

      public double getAsDouble()
      Gets the minimum of all input values.

      When no values have been added, the result is positive infinity.

      Specified by:
      getAsDouble in interface DoubleSupplier
      Returns:
      minimum of all values.

    • combine

      public Min combine(Min other)
      Description copied from interface: StatisticAccumulator
      Combines the state of the other statistic into this one.
      Specified by:
      combine in interface StatisticAccumulator<Min>
      Parameters:
      other - Another statistic to be combined.
      Returns:
      this instance after combining other.
