Dear R developers,
I find the which.min function very handy. However, maybe you could
consider a tiny addition to the example data in the the help text.
By adding another zero to the vector x...
x <- c(1:4, 0, 0:5,11)
...the example would more explicitly show that which.min actually
'giv[es] the index of the /first/ minimum or maximum respectively of x'.
This will also more clearly distinguish it from which(x == min(x)) that
is mentioned in the text.
which.min(x)
[1] 5
> which(x == min(x))
[1] 5 6
The 'first' is emphasized by italics in the Value section, while it is
parenthesized in Description. I believe that the parenthesis could be
removed, and 'first' possibly could be emphasized here as well.
Well, well, just a small suggestion. Thank you all for your great work.
Best regards,
Henrik
