Find positions of the smallest value in a list:

Get lists of positions for the three smallest values:

Find positions of the two smallest values in an association:

PositionSmallest works with arbitrary numeric values:

PositionSmallest can work with orderings of non-numeric data:

PositionSmallest uses numeric ordering by default:

Instead use canonical ordering:

PositionSmallest works on lists of Quantity expressions:

PositionSmallest works on lists of DateObject expressions:

Find positions of the smallest elements in a random list:

Compare to results using Position and Min:

PositionSmallest gives positions of all the smallest elements:

TakeSmallest will only give as many element positions as are requested:

One must specify the count of minimal elements to get all positions corresponding to the smallest element using TakeSmallest:

Find positions of the smallest elements in a random list:

One can use Ordering once the number of smallest elements is known:

Find positions of the smallest elements in a random list:

FindPeaks locates positions of all local minimal values:

Remove all peak positions that do not correspond to the global minimum value:

If fewer than the requested count of smallest values are present, PositionSmallest will give as many as are present:

If the elements are not comparable, PositionSmallest will not evaluate:
