Hello,

I have the following question on a function which a want to use in MATA. I think
it's best illustrated with an example. In the R-language you have the which()
function, which works as follows. Suppose you have a matrix Z:

0 0 0
1 0 0
0 1 0
9 9 1
9 9 9
9 9 9

then using which(Z==9, arr.ind = T)
finds entries with Z=9 and returns an array with coordinates as follows:

row col
4 1
5 1
6 1
4 2
5 2
6 2
5 3
6 3

Does a similar function exist in MATA?

regards Alex
