Find Minimum (min) and Maximum (max) values of an attribute in Houdini

The fastest way to find out the minimum and maximum values of an attribute in Houdini is to use an attribute promote node.

• Drop an attribute promote, name, and then select the class of the attribute to calculate min and max from, and then change the new class to "detail."

• Check the "Change new name" tab and input a name for your detail attribute. In my case, I named it "minimum"

• Now check the detail attribute tab and verify that your smallest value has been stored in a new attribute.
