Lesser value from list of values? Lowest, Least?

[wildman@noclient.net]

If there a VB.NET function that would return the lesser value from a
list of values?

For example,

Least(1,2,3,4,5 )

would return 1.

Thank you. Does anybody have a simple working example that will work
in asp.net/vb.net codebehind code?

Public Shared Function Min ( _
source As IEnumerable(Of Decimal) _
) As Decimal

Visual Basic (Usage)


Dim source As IEnumerable(Of Decimal)
Dim returnValue As Decimal

returnValue = source.Min()
