Returns the index of smallest value of argument x.

;Usage: '''<code>imin(<var>x</var>)</code>'''

;Result: The result is the index of the minimum value of <var>x</var>.
::*if <var>x</var> is a scalar: the result is '''0'''
::*if <var>x</var> is a vector: the result is the index (row) of the minimum
::*if <var>x</var> is a matrix: the result is the element index ''i'' of the minimum; the column c and the row r can be computed as follows: <code>''c'' := int ''i''/''x''[!nrow]</code>, <code>r := int ''i''%''x''[!nrow]</code>
