title: find minimum value using a for loop
body: <p>I am trying to take 10 integers from the user's input and find the minimum value using a <code>for</code> loop.</p>
  
  <p>I am struggling to correctly write the <code>if</code> statement. It is supposed to take the first input and make that the smallest and compare the next inputs to that.</p>
  
  <p>My final print statement just prints the last number entered.</p>
  
  <pre><code>Scanner scan = new Scanner(System.in);
  
  int smallest = 0;
  int number = 0;
  
  for (int i = 1; i &lt;= 10; i++) {
     System.out.print("Enter a number &gt; ");
     number = scan.nextInt();
  
     if (number &lt; smallest) {
         smallest = number; 
     } else {  
         smallest = number; 
     }       
  }
  System.out.println("The minimum is " + smallest);
  </code></pre>
