How can I find the maximum value and its index in array in MATLAB?

The function is max. To obtain the first maximum value you should do

[val, idx] = max(a);

val is the maximum value and idx is its index.

For a matrix you can use this:

[M,I] = max(A(:))

I is the index of A(:) containing the largest element.

Now, use the ind2sub function to extract the row and column indices of A corresponding to the largest element.

[I_row, I_col] = ind2sub(size(A),I)
