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.
