minN

Returns the n minimum elements from the provided array. If n is greater than or equal to the provided array's length than return the original array(sorted in ascending order).

Sort's the array's shallow copy in ascending order and returns the first n elements

Skip the second argument to get a single element(in the form of a array)

const minN = (arr,n = 1) => {
  let rra = [...arr].sort((a,b) => a-b)
  return rra.splice(0,n)
}

maxN([1,2,3]); // [1]
maxN([1,2,3],2); // [1,2]
maxN([1,2,3],4); // [1,2,3]
