mini - minimum

Calling Sequence

[m [,k]]=mini(A)
[m [,k]]=mini(A,'c')
[m [,k]]=mini(A,'r')
[m [,k]]=mini(A,'m')
[m [,k]]=mini(A1,A2,...,An)
[m [,k]]=mini(list(A1,A2,...,An))

Parameters

Description

For A , a real vector or matrix, mini(A) is the largest element A . [m,k]=mini(A) gives in addition the index of the minimum. A second argument of type string 'r' or 'c' can be used : 'r' is used to get a row vector m such that m(j) contains the minimum of the j th column of A ( A(:,j) ), k(j) gives the row indice which contain the minimum for column j . 'c' is used for the dual operation on the rows of A . 'm' is used for compatibility with Matlab.

m=mini(A1,A2,...,An) , where all the Aj are matrices of the same sizes,returns a vector or a matrix m of size size(m)=size(A1) such that m(i)= mini( Aj(i)), j=1,...,n . [m,k]=mini(A1,A2,...,An) gives in addition the vector or matrix k . for a fixed i , k(i) is the number of the first Aj(i) achieving the minimum.

[m,k]=mini(list(A1,...,An)) is an equivalent syntax of [m,k]=mini(A1,A2,...,An)

Examples


[m,n]=mini([1,3,1])
[m,n]=mini([3,1,1],[1,3,1],[1,1,3])
[m,n]=mini([3,-2,1],1)
[m,n]=mini(list([3,1,1],[1,3,1],[1,1,3]))
[m,n]=mini(list(1,3,1))
