findΒΆ
The find function finds the indices of all matrix elements which do not equal 0.
-
rvIndexes = find(rvM)
Return Value
rvIndexes contains the indices of the elements of rvM which are not equal to 0.
Parameters
-
rvM rvM is a real matrix. If all matrix elements are equal to 0 (zero) the function will return 0.
Comment
find is mainly used in conjunction with comparison operators. If rvM is a matrix, the function returns the indices of the internal representation of the matrix.
Example
a = [1, 2, 6, 45, 3, 11]
b = find(a >= 6)
print a[b] // Output: 6 45 11
a = ["abc", "def", "jkl"]
b = find(a != "def")
print b // Output: 1 3
print a[b] // Output: abc jkl
