Reduce does all the work and Minimize is only left with something that looks like this (except that with more terms) Minimize[x + y + z, {x == 20 && y == 4 && z == 19 || x == 20 && y == 9 && z == 18}, {x, y, z}] This sort of thing even Minimize can manage;-) Andrzej Kozlowski Chiba, Japan http://www.akikoz.net/~andrzej/ http://www.mimuw.edu.pl/~akoz/
