Find smallest positive number in a list without using a built-in function

I am trying to find the smallest positive number in a list without using any built-in function.

This is what I have tried.

def smallest_positive(lst):
    smallest = lst[0]
    for i in lst:
        if (i > 0) and (smallest > i):
            smallest = i
    return smallest

My test cases are:

print(smallest_positive([4, -6, 7, 2, -4, 10]))
# outputs: 2 CORRECT

print(smallest_positive([.22, 5, 3, -.1, 7, 6, 7]))
# outputs: .22 CORRECT

print(smallest_positive([-6, -7, -9]))
# outputs: -6 INCORRECT # I expect output to be None

print(smallest_positive([]))
# outputs: Traceback INCORRECT # I expect output to be None

Some test cases did not pass.

>Solution :

When you set smallest = list[0], it might be a negative number and screws the rest of your algorithms, so :

def smallest_positive(list):
    smallest = None
    for i in list:
        if i > 0 and (smallest is None or smallest > i):
            smallest = i
    return smallest

output for your test cases:

>>
2
0.22
None
None
