Solution 2

Try this codes:

C#

int lowest = 2147483647;
int[] nums = {4,2,1,74,6,77};
foreach(int num in nums)
{
   if(num < lowest)
   {
      lowest = num;
   }
}

I give you a +3 for posting a valid solution. However your solution is in C# where as the OP was asking for VB6.

I also want to point out that setting the integer variable "lowest" to the value "2147483647" is unnecessary.

I would like to offer the following alternative to your code.
int[] nums = { 4, 2, 1, 74, 6, 77 };
int lowest = nums[0];
for (int i = 1; i < nums.Length; i++)
{
if (nums[i] < lowest)
{
lowest = nums[i];
}
}

Please do not take this the wrong way your code is fine this is merely a suggestion.

Solution 1

Iterate through the numbers, and keep track of the smallest one you've found so far. At the end, you'll have the smallest. I don't know VB6 but the method is fairly straight forward.
