Question

Is there a way to perform row wise operations on matrices in octave ?

I have a (mXn) matrix of integers, can i obtain a m dimensional vector where each element is the maximum element of the corresponding row ? How can i do this in octave ?

Answer 1

In matlab, for a 2D array A, this would be

max(A,[],2)

and if you want to know the index of found the value:

[value,index]=max(A,[],2)
