Returns the index of smallest value of argument x.

Usage
imin(x)
Result
The result is the index of the minimum value of x.
  • if x is a scalar: the result is 0
  • if x is a vector: the result is the index (row) of the minimum
  • if x 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: c := int i/x[!nrow], r := int i%x[!nrow]
