Python error: unorderable types: list()<int()

I keep getting the error unorderable types: list()< int(). What am i doing wrong and how should i fix it??

My code:

import sys
from List import *


def main():

    strings=ArrayToList(sys.argv[1:])
    numbers=ListMap(int,strings)

    smallest=numbers[0]
    for i in range(len(numbers)):
        if numbers[i]<smallest:
            smallest=numbers[i]
    return smallest

    print("The smallest is", smallest(numbers))

main()

The error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "command.py", line 18, in <module>
    main()
  File "command.py", line 12, in main
    if numbers[i]<smallest:
TypeError: unorderable types: list() < int()

Looks like you're trying to compare a list with an integer, this is not possible in Python3. Make sure that all items of numbers are integers or not.

>>> [] < 1
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<ipython-input-1-de4ae201066c>", line 1, in <module>
    [] < 1
TypeError: unorderable types: list() < int()
