"min" and "max" in "std.algorithm" can be used with single

mention how they can be used with ranges in the documentation:
https://dlang.org/phobos/std_algorithm_comparison.html#.min
The docs do mention `minElement` and `maxElement` (the range
versions) under the "See Also" heading, but you're right that
it's not super clear *why* they're mentioned.
They said " If at least one of the arguments is NaN, the result
is an unspecified value. See std.algorithm.searching.minElement
for examples on how to cope with NaNs.", as a beginner how can I
guess what "NaNs" means or if it refers to ranges?!
