a, long b);
u_int

a, u_int b);
u_int
min(u_int
a, u_int b);

a, u_long b);
u_long
ulmin(u_long
a, u_long b);
DESCRIPTION
Theimin(),
lmin(),
min(),
and
ulmin()
functions return whichever argument is algebraically smaller, differing only
in their argument and return types: these functions operate on, respectively,
natural size, long, unsigned and unsigned long integers.
The
imax(),
lmax(),
max(),
and
ulmax()
functions are identical except that they return the algebraically larger
argument between a and b.
