MATLAB: Determine the element’s row and column position based on the specific element

Question

Hello,

The project asked to output the highest value of a (value 8), with b and c being the row and column of said value. I'm having trouble finding the input that would output the b and c value, which in term determine the position of the highest value, in this case b(2) and c(C). If anyone can show me the correct inputs it'll be much appreciated!

For reference:

a= [1 3; 4 8; 2 6]

b= [1;2;3]

c= {'A' 'B' 'C'}

Answer 1

Is this?

a= [1 3; 4 8; 2 6]
b= [1;2;3]
c= {'A','B','C'}
[r1,c1]=find(max(a(:))==a)
b(r1)
c{c1}
