This may be a very trivial question, but I was wondering if there is an 
intrinsic Julia function that finds the location of the maximum in a 
vector, something similar to maxloc. And if a function like that exists, is 
it made with parallel programming in mind?

For example find the maximum of v = [1, 25, 89, 6, 8, 63, 7, 569, 8, 55, 
 4, 5, 64, 545, 5, 45, 5, 5, 55, 45, 454, 55, 578, 78, 7]
but do it in parallel mode, that is divide the vector in sub-vectors, find 
the maximum location in each and eventually return the universal maximum 
(because this parallel procedure is faster than searching in the whole 
vector per se).

Thanks
