minimum value at specific index is important

Hi everyone!

I am back with new problems.
I have a set of points..

A = { 1 , 5 , 3 , 9 , 1 ,7 , 1 }

Now in the set.. the minmum value is 1 which is at index 0,  4 and 6.

if we find the minimum value from i = 0 to 6 values.. the minimum value 1 at index 0 will be the output. but i need the minimum value at index 4.

In that case, how can get the minimum value at specific index..
For example minimum value  1 at index 4 is important for me.

In that case, what to do?

Kindly help me .
Thanks
Regards,
Pari

Re: minimum value at specific index is important

Is this a programming problem?

Re: minimum value at specific index is important

hi pari_alf

You need to supply a more detailed algorithm.

eg.

Find minimum values
If only one, state its index.

If more than one, what?

(a) state the one in the middle
(b) state the one nearest to index 4
(c) state ..........?
