Sort them and choose first n elements (or last - depend what sort order
you choose). There is library function for sorting altough I don't
remember the details so you must search help.

With regards

Hi,

Thanks for your Response.

Sorry , I misspelled .

..... in a list of n numbers... ---> ..... in a ARRAY of n numbers...

But Could you be a little more specific ?
Any source code?

I am a algorithm-beginner.

Thanks in advance,

Sungkwan

You can store the numbers in a vector, run the sort algorithm on them
and then take the first m numbers. (vector and sort are part of the
standard library.)

Hi all,

How do I write an algorithm that finds the m smallest numbers in a list
of n numbers?

Thanks in advanced.
