Implementation

pub fn minMax(comptime T: type, slice: []const T) struct { T, T } {
    assert(slice.len > 0);
    var running_minimum = slice[0];
    var running_maximum = slice[0];
    for (slice[1..]) |item| {
        running_minimum = @min(running_minimum, item);
        running_maximum = @max(running_maximum, item);
    }
    return .{ running_minimum, running_maximum };
}
