Hi Thierry,
I have to correct my remark:
At first, case 2 will loose some merits, because after the first replace
linesOfNumbers is already a comma separated list and remains that.
We should write it like that?
-- case 2
repeat nRepeat
put LinesOfNumbers into nn
replace return with comm
Nice comparison.
In 8.0.0-dp15 I have here with the large example 2.13 - 4.45 - 2.90.
**So case 1 wins. Clearly.**
Interesting. And good to know.
p.s.
min and max work also on arrays containing only numbers.
Has at about the speed of case 3.

Speed is not important for my immediate situation finding the max and min in a
series of numbers to generate chart axes
but as you say it could be import

Thanks,
That is a good solution which will also apply to Max.
I just thought that anything that can be rolled into the engine would be faster
and
usually every tick/millisecond that can be gained is worth having in an
interpreted language.
Thanks again

What about this?
return min( replaceText( myListOfNumbers, "\n",comma))

I thought Min may work with the itemDelimiter but apparently not.
Is that something that would be useful?
set the itemDelimiter to return
return Min (myListOfNumbers) — based on return not comma
All the best
