Find the number of positive numbers in a vector

x = input( 'Enter a vector: ' ); count = 0; for ii = 1:length(x), if ( x(ii) > 0 ), count = count + 1; end end fprintf('Number of positive numbers is %d\n', count);

Find the index of the largest number in a vector

x = input( 'Enter a vector: ' ); max_value = x(1); max_index = 1; for ii = 2:length(x), if ( x(ii) > max_value ), max_value = x(ii); max_index = ii; end end fprintf( 'Max value is %d\n', max_value ); fprintf( 'Its index is %d\n', max_index );

What if the max value occurs more than once?
