This function finds the smallest element in an integer or floating
point array.

**NOTE**

Cannot be compiled with Supercharge or Turbo.

**WARNING**

A string array makes MATMIN hang the system.

**CROSS-REFERENCE**

:ref:`matmax` is the opposite function. Refer also
to :ref:`minimum` and
:ref:`minimum-pct` which are even quicker.
