MATLAB: Match function in matlab

arraymatchMATLAB

Hello,
I am looking for a function that corresponds to the excel "match" function.
I have an array of (n,32) where n is sated in for loop function as a number of completed loops (so it differs).
DataOutput = zeros(length(phiAStart:phiAStep:phiAEnd),32);
I would like to find the smallest value in column 32 (y) and get the corresponding value in column 1 (x) where y=f(x). 
DataOutput(colector,1) = x;   
DataOutput(colector,32) = y;
I can not resolve a function (to get x) having y because it's numerically calculated polynomial so I thought about something similar that MATCH function from excel.
Is there any similar function in Matlab or simple script that can be introduced?
I will be thankful for any suggestions or codes that may work.

Best Answer

number = min(DataOutput(:,32));
position = find(DataOutput(:,32)==number);
matchingx = DataOutput(position,1)
Works just fine
