Question

anyone can help me how to find the oldest person in a room?

i have write code :

old_name=name(max(age))

first access the max age the pass it to the name to get the name of oldest man.

is it true or not??

please guide me

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

No. This returns the persons age. You want the index, so you'll have to do this in 2 steps. See the documentation for max to see how to get the index of the max value.
