Expand description

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

Returns the first argument if the comparison determines them to be equal.

Internally uses an alias to `Ord::min`.

## §Examples

    use std::cmp;

    assert_eq!(cmp::min(1, 2), 1);
    assert_eq!(cmp::min(2, 2), 2);

    use std::cmp::{self, Ordering};

    #[derive(Eq)]
    struct Equal(&'static str);

    impl PartialEq for Equal {
        fn eq(&self, other: &Self) -> bool { true }
    }
    impl PartialOrd for Equal {
        fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Option<Ordering> { Some(Ordering::Equal) }
    }
    impl Ord for Equal {
        fn cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Ordering { Ordering::Equal }
    }

    assert_eq!(cmp::min(Equal("v1"), Equal("v2")).0, "v1");
