Finding minima using if and for loops

I have a column of data and I want to make a script that utilizes for loops and if constructs
for example
12
4
5
23
63
57
23
6
34
In this set, the minima would be 4 and 6

Hope this helps. Vector y returns the minimum values of vector A
A=[12; 4; 5; 23; 63; 57; 23; 6; 34];
a=A';
d=[diff(a) 0];
c=[];
for i=1:(length(d)-1)
if d(i)*d(i+1)<0&&d(i+1)>0
c=[c (i+1)];
end
end
for j=1:length(c)
y(j)=a(c(j));
end

This is homework.
We have a policy of providing only hints for homework. It is not appropriate to provide complete solutions.
I am sorry. I did not know of that. I will do that in future
