Find the position of minimum and maximum of value in R Programming Language

Determines the location, i.e., index of the (first) minimum or maximum of a numeric vector.

Usage
which.min(x)
which.max(x)

x <- c( 1, 4, 3, 9, 6, 7) 
which.max(x)

Output:

$Rscript main.r
[1] 4 # position

{Or}

Position particular number(another way)
x [which.max(x)]

Output:

[1] 9

For Minimum Value:

x <- c( 1, 4, 3, 9, 6, 7) 
which.min(x)

output:

$Rscript main.r
[1] 1

Position particular number

x [which.min(x)]

Output:

[1] 1

Range: A function called range() is also available which returns the minimum and maximum in a two element vector.

Range(x)


[1 ] 1 9
