getMaxIndex: Return index of maximal/minimal/best element in numerical vector.

Description

If x is empty or only contains NAs which are to be removed, -1 is returned.

Usage

getMaxIndex(x, weights = NULL, ties.method = "random", na.rm = FALSE)
getMinIndex(x, weights = NULL, ties.method = "random", na.rm = FALSE)
getBestIndex(x, weights = NULL, minimize = TRUE, ...)

Value

[integer(1)].

Arguments

x

[numeric]
Input vector.

weights

[numeric]
Weights (same length as x). If these are specified, the index is selected from x * w. Default is NULL which means no weights.

ties.method

[character(1)]
How should ties be handled? Possible are: “random”, “first”, “last”. Default is “random”.

na.rm

[logical(1)]
If FALSE, NA is returned if an NA is encountered in x. If TRUE, NAs are disregarded. Default is FALSE

minimize

[logical(1)]
Minimal element is considered best? Default is TRUE.
