We can use Max[exampleList] or Min[exampleList] to find the maxima and minima of exampleList, however, is there a similar standalone function that returns something like {position in array, maximum value in the array} or {position in array, minimum value in the array}, i.e. both the position and value of the maximum or minimum element in ...

Apr 01, 2011 · Thanks for that SredniVashtar with regards to position I need to make some kind of rule for n, I tried liss = 7 - li to get {-11, -15, 3, -3} But I come up with difficulties because if I had 11 -li which gives me {-7, -11, 7, 1} I need to find the position of the smallest positive number

Mar 18, 2012 · 2 9. Another approach is of course sorting the list by user-defined rules and then picking the first/last element. For example, the following sorts the list according to ascending y values, and then extracts the min/max from that. sorted = Sort [rand, #1 [ [2]] < #2 [ [2]] &] sorted [ [1, 2]] (* Minimal y *) sorted [ [-1, 2]] (* Maximal y *) 2 ...

Position[expr, pattern] gives a list of the positions at which objects matching pattern appear in expr. Position[expr, pattern, levelspec] finds only objects that appear on levels specified by levelspec. Position[expr, pattern, levelspec, n] gives the positions of the first n objects found. Position[pattern] represents an operator form of Position that can be applied to an expression.

I am generating a list of numbers between 0 and 1, using a cicle and a function I wrote . Because I am trying to solve an optimization process I need to extract the smallest of this number (and this is easy using the function Min) but I don't know how to extract the position of the minimum, in what position of the array the minimum value is stored.

May 03, 2015 · An old trick used to find the minimum is to find the max of -1 times the data. The x position is correct, but the y is negated. So multiply -1 times those y values. Note: That # and & is a Mathematica shorthand for defining a tiny little function with argument named #.

FindMinimum returns a list of the form { f min, { x -> x min } }, where f min is the minimum value of f found, and x min is the value of x for which it is found. If the starting point for a variable is given as a list, the values of the variable are taken to be lists with the same dimensions.

An old trick used to find the minimum is to find the max of -1 times the data. data = {1, 3, 1, 3};FindPeaks[data]. which gives {{2, 3}, {4, 3}}.

So multiply -1 times those y values.

Position[list,_?(#==Max[list]&)]. or shorter (per your comment...) Position[list,Max[list]]. will do the trick, obviously change Max to Min for minimum.

Details and Options. Position [ expr, pattern] tests all the subparts of expr in turn to try and find ones that match pattern. Position returns a list of positions in a form suitable for use in Extract, ReplacePart, and MapAt. The form is different from the one used in Part.

How can I find the indices i and j of all nonzero elements of a matrix. ... The difficulty is that Mathematica, in contrast to some programming

Open Mathematica Notebook. Let's see where the bottleneck is. Finding the minimal really takes no time but the Position function is surprisingly slow. (min ...
