How to find the row and column of the largest number in an array?

Hello,

I am new to matlab and I am stuck with this. If I have a matrix A as follows:

4.4347 4.5156

4.462 4.7074

1.111 .985

I want (2,2) for index and 4.707 for value. I am trying the following:

A = [4.4347 4.5156; 4.462 4.7074;1.111 .985 ]
max(A,[],1,'linear')

and

max(A,[],2,'linear')

But I don'g get the desired answer with either of them. Any help pwuld be greatly appreciated!

A = [4.4347 4.5156; 4.462 4.7074;1.111 .985 ]

A = 3×2

4.4347 4.5156 4.4620 4.7074 1.1110 0.9850

[Amax, idx] = max(A(:))

Amax = 4.7074

idx = 5

[i, j] = ind2sub(size(A), idx)

i = 2

j = 2
