Hi,

I have two matrices of fairly similar values per element. I would like to create a new third matrix which takes the lowest number in each element?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Call min with the two matrices as input. From the documentation: "C = min(A,B) returns an array with the smallest elements taken from A or B."
