// min_n() and max_n() functions similar to std::min() and std::max(),
// but which allow more than 2 arguments.
// Hopefully the next standard will have a variadic version of them.

// Currently implemented for up to 8 arguments.
// TODO : to be documented (or wait for the next standard to have it?)
