# into_values()

> Returns the lowest values from a MinN aggregate

<Icon icon="tag" iconType="duotone" /> Since [1.16.0][toolkit-1.16.0]

Return the N lowest values seen by the aggregate.

## Samples

Find the bottom 5 values from `i * 13 % 10007` for i = 1 to 10000.

```sql theme={"dark"}
SELECT toolkit_experimental.into_values(
    toolkit_experimental.min_n(sub.val, 5))
FROM (
  SELECT (i * 13) % 10007 AS val
  FROM generate_series(1,10000) as i
) sub;
```

Output:

```sql theme={"dark"}
into_values
---------------------------------
1
2
3
4
5
```

## Arguments

The syntax is:

```sql theme={"dark"}
into_values (
    agg MinN
) SETOF BIGINT | SETOF DOUBLE PRECISION | SETOF TIMESTAMPTZ
```
