C++ Program using Templates to Find minimum of two Integers,Characters and Floating Point Numbers

Template is an more abstract level of a Class by allowing more than one type of data types to be handled by a same class without the need for the definition of more classes.A template class can handle integers,characters,strings etc.For example you can check if a character is greater that a character or an integer is greater than an integer by using a same template class.C++ supports Template classes.To get a better and brighter idea of classes see http://c-madeeasy.blogspot.in/2011/12/what-is-abstractionthe-concept-of.html

The following program is a template class Implementation in C++ to find out the minimum of two integers,characters and floating point numbers.The template class implementation allows this operation to be done using a same class with the need of different classes for different data types.
