» Finding Minimum / Maximum Values

Problem:

Column A contains a list of numbers.
We want to find the minimum value in the range between row 2 (first value in the list) and each row number specified in column B.

Solution:

Use the MIN and INDIRECT functions in the following formula:
=MIN(INDIRECT("$A$2:A"&B2))

You can get the same result with this, therefore eliminating column B

=MIN(INDIRECT("$A$2:A"&ROW())) and for the MAX

=MAX(INDIRECT("$A$2:A"&ROW()))
easy way

=min($a$2:a2)
