Solution(By Examveda Team)

The correct answer is Option A: min().
The min() function is used to find the smallest item in an iterable, such as a list, tuple, or set.
It takes an iterable as an argument and returns the smallest item.
For example:

numbers = [5, 2, 8, 1, 6]
smallest_number = min(numbers)
print(smallest_number)  # Output: 1
