You can first google it before posting a question here. It is old question and you will find many useful links: For example:

MATLAB: I want to find in which row the minimum element is

Use the min function with two outputs:

[Vmin,Idxmin] = max(V);

If ‘V’ is your column vector, ‘Vmin’ will be the minimum value, and ‘Idxmin’ will be the index of the first occurrence of the minimum. If you have more than one value of the minimum, use the find function:

Idxmin = find(V == min(V));

It will return the indexes (row numbers) of all values of the minimum.

MATLAB: How can i make a function which will return the largest and the second largest component

Do you mean the maximum over a matrix (see tags and example max(max(C))) or over vector (body of the question)?

Find maximum value with the corresponding index
Set value of this index to NaN
Find maximum again.

Alternative, which is slower due to the expensive sorting for large inputs:

SORT helps.

Which values should be replied, if the highest maximum is not unique?

[EDITED: Sorry, I've overseen that this is a homework!]
