How do you obtain the minimum value of two fields in MySQL?

To get the minimum value of two fields, you can use the LEAST() function in MySQL. This function takes multiple parameters and returns the smallest value among them.

For example, if there is a table called students with fields id, name, and age, to obtain the minimum values of age and id fields, you can use the following SQL statement:

SELECT LEAST(age, id) AS min_value
FROM students;

This way, you can retrieve the minimum value from the age and id fields, and the result will be displayed in the min_value column.
