MinElementAbove is a math code snippet to get the std::min_element above a certain value.


//From http://www.richelbilderbeek.nl/CppMinElementAbove.htm

double MinElementAbove(const std::vector<double>& v, const double above)

{

  const double max = std::numeric_limits<double>::max();

  double lowest = max;

  const std::vector<double>::const_iterator j = v.end();

  std::vector<double>::const_iterator i = v.begin();

  for ( ; i!=j; ++i)

  {

    if (*i > above && *i < lowest)

    {

      lowest = *i;

    }

  }

  return (lowest != max ? lowest : above);

}
