LEAST

Returns the lowest value among the values of the given expressions.

Syntax

LEAST ( expression , expression, ... )

Example

This example illustrates the LEAST function:

SELECT cust_no, last_name, LEAST (ADD_MONTHS (start_date, 10), SYSDATE) FROM customer ;

Notes

The first argument to the function can be of any type. However, the types of the subsequent arguments must be compatible with that of the first argument.
The type of the result is the same as that of the first argument.
If any of the argument expressions evaluate to NULL, the result is NULL.
When the data type of an expression is either CHARACTER(length) or VARCHAR(length), the expression can contain multi-byte characters. The sort weight for each character is determined by the collation table in the database.
