element in 2D array

how can find minimun element in 2D array

Answer 1

[Walter Roberson]

[minval, minpos] = min(YourArray(:));
[minrow,  mincol] = ind2sub(size(YourArray), minpos);

The above if you want to know the row and column as well as the value. If you just want the value then

minval = min(YourArray(:));

[James Tursa]

Not exactly sure what you want, but here is code to find the minimum value:

x = rand(2,2);
m = min(x(:));
