how do I get the MIN of several grids in Map Algebra; neither MIN or MINIMUM in the help points to where that function is, and guessing the syntax only leads to error messages). Python map algebra requires new, case-sensitive syntax, and the names of the functions are the same as the tool names. I know this all seems very painful now but I think in the long run it is good to have one syntax for raster tools instead of 9.3's five (Raster calc, SOMA, MOMA, command window). CellStatistics (in_rasters_or_constants, {statistics_type}, {ignore_nodata}) 9.3 raster calculator: min([raster1],[raster2]) 10.0 map algebra: CellStatistics("raster1","raster2","MINIMUM") or, you can just run the CellStatistics tool dialog.
