Find a minumum value from an xml doc

$

Hi Guys,

 

I have an xml document wich I can view as xml or put into an array.  I need to parse the xml data to find the minimum SLevel value, displaying on the page that value itself and the company offering it. I have tried in vain to get it working.  I can find data by looping through matching a company name or exact value.

 

 

foreach ($xml->Type->Company as $item)
{
    
    
    
    if ($item->SLevel == 18.56)
    {
        do here
    }

 

But ,I have no idea how to loop through using min to find the lowest number.  Would anyone have a working example I could follow.  Many thanks.  Jon
