[R] argmax

[Dimitris Rizopoulos]

check ?which.max(), e.g.,

x <- c(1,4,15,6,7)
which.max(x)

Hello,

Is there any function that returns the argmax of a vector ?

For example I have the vector x=(1,4,15,6,7)

max(x)=15

I want a function f such that f(x)=3 because this is where max(x) is.

Thank your very much.

P.S. : I know it is a basic question but I have not figured it out by 
myself.
