  | #### D.16.2.30 minimalValue `Syntax:` `Polymake::minimalValue(` polytope p, intvec v `)` `Assume:` v lies in the dual tail cone of p. `Type:` int `Purpose:` the minimal value of the linear form v on p. `Note:` The first coordinate of v corresponds to a shift of the minimal value since p is considered as a polytope in the plane (first coordinate) = 1. `Example:`
