smallest number of 3 python

a = int(input('Enter first number  : '))
b = int(input('Enter second number : '))
c = int(input('Enter third number  : '))

smallest = 0

if a < b and a < c :
    smallest = a
if b < a and b < c :
    smallest = b
if c < a and c < b :
    smallest = c

print(smallest, "is the smallest of three numbers.")

how to print smallest number in python

# creating empty list
lis = []

# user enters the number of elements to put in list
count = int(input('How many numbers? '))

# iterating till count to append all input elements in list
for n in range(count):
    number = int(input('Enter number: '))
    lis.append(number)

# displaying smallest element
print("Smallest element of the list is :", min(lis))

smallest possible number in python

The smallest possible number in python (not underflow to 0)
is the smallest possible subnormal number.

# L is the lowerbound exponent given by IEEE754 double precision.
L_sub < (machine_epsilon * 2**L)  =  (2**-52) * (2**-1022) = 2**-1074

Thus, smallest_number = 2*-1074 => 5e-324
