Conditions

Only positive integers will be passed to the function (> 0 ), no negatives or zeros.

Examples

minValue ({1, 3, 1})  ==> return (13)
minValue({5, 7, 5, 9, 7})  ==> return (579)
minValue({1, 9, 3, 1, 7, 4, 6, 6, 7}) return  ==> (134679)

Explanation

• (13) is the minimum number could be formed from {1, 3, 1} , Without duplications
• (579) is the minimum number could be formed from {5, 7, 5, 9, 7} , Without duplications
• (134679) is the minimum number could be formed from {1, 9, 3, 1, 7, 4, 6, 6, 7} , Without duplications
