Hello, I have a file like below: 1 -1 2 -2 3 4 -4 I want to find the smallest number in this file and I wrote the following program: function smaller() small = 0 for line in eachline("file.txt") if (small == 0) small = line elseif (small > line) small …

[image] hack3rcon: I changed the code to below, but I got an error: What precisely did you change? If you just replaced the two occurrences of small = line by small = parse(Int, line), then the comparison small > line would yield an error, as you are comparing an Int (small) to a String (line)…

My philosophy is to tell people when their code/question is wrong or misguided, rather than to just give them what they are asking for😉
