With the help of optional parameters, it is easy to write functions Min and Max, which take an arbitrary number of parameters, like Min(1,x,-1.41,y*3). The example below is limited to 10 arguments, but in the function definitions the parameter lists can be continued arbitrarily.

When x is build, does it need empty value (ex:1|3|6|||||||) causing global array %B% to have empty elements?

If the input array has empty elements, or non-numeric values, unexpected things could happen. Similarly, if the index range given to the ArraySort function is too large. The array elements, which were not assigned a value, appear as empty strings. If x0 does not contain the number of array elements, the third argument must not be omitted. Otherwise, the local x variable does not have empty values, it is assigned all the elements of the input array, separated by new line characters.

I still dont think there should be empty elements with the new array, I used

What do you want to do? Sort the elements x8, x9 and x10? Then use

I want sort elements i0 - i1

This is the first case above, with i0 = 8, i1 = 10. The sorted array is "s", with s0 = length, s1 the smallest element and s%s0% the largest. In this example, i1-i0+1 = 3 elements are sorted, therefore s0 = 3 and s1, s2 and s3 are set. If there were other elements of "s" already defined, like s5, their values are not changed.

thank you for your explinations

You are welcome. It looks like the description was not clear enough, so I added explanations to the original post, too. Others might understand the function easier now. Thanks for pointing out the need for clarifications.
