How to find the indexes of a matrix which can have any number of columns and which has zero elements as well
For Example: A=[1 0 0;0 1 0;0 0 1] (here A has 3 columns) or A =[0 0 0 1; 1 0 0 1;0 0 0 0; 1 1 0 0; 1 1 1 1] (here A has 4 columns)

Thanks for the reply,but find function finds the indices of only non-zero elements

We don't understand what you're looking for. For the second example you posted, what SPECIFICALLY do you want to be returned as the list of "indexes of a matrix" and why did you select those particular elements of the matrix?

It is not entirely clear to me what you want.
The linear indices of a matrix A are
reshape(1:numel(A), size(A))
To find the indices of zeros in A, use
ind = find(A == 0);
