1. Open your preferred Python development environment, such as a code editor or Jupyter Notebook.
2. Define a function named `find_min` that takes a list `numbers` as its input:
```python
def find_min(numbers):
```
3. Initialize a variable `min_num` with a high value, such as a very large positive integer:
```python
min_num = float('inf')
```
4. Iterate through each element `number` in the provided `numbers` list using a `for` loop:
```python
for number in numbers:
```
5. Inside the loop, compare the current `number` with the current `min_num`. If `number` is smaller than `min_num`, update `min_num` to be equal to `number`:
```python
if number < min_num:
min_num = number
```
6. After the loop has completed, return the final `min_num` as the smallest element found in the list:
```python
return min_num
```
Here's the complete Python code for the `find_min` function:
```python
def find_min(numbers):
min_num = float('inf')
for number in numbers:
if number < min_num:
min_num = number
return min_num
```
This code will perform the task of finding the smallest element in the input list `numbers`. You can call this function with any list of numbers and it will return the minimum value from that list.
