Remarks:
Arguments can be the following: numbers; names, arrays, or references that contain numbers; text representations of numbers; or logical values, such as TRUE and FALSE, in a reference.
 
Arguments that contain TRUE evaluate as 1; arguments that contain text or FALSE evaluate as 0 (zero). If the arguments contain no values, MINA returns 0 (zero). If you do not want to include logical values and text representations of numbers in a reference as part of the calculation, use the MIN function.
