Hey all,
I have a simple vector containing my data and wanna find the index of its value closest to zero. At the moment, I am just doing:
zeroIX=dsearchn(mydata,0);
However, this only gives me the very first value. If I have for example a vector like this:
mydata= [1;2;5;0.1;0.1;0.1;2;3]
I omit all the other two values, which are exactly as far away from 0. But in this case for example, I need the index of the middle one. I read through several ideas but haven't figured out a way to find similar values close to zero. Can anyone of you help me?
Thanks in advance and best, Manuel

Define a small fraction..say eps of your required order...
eps = 10^-2 ;
idx = mydata<=eps ;

@KSSV: do NOT use eps as a variable name: it has a specific meaning (the machine epsilon), so re-defining it is as confusing as re-defining pi. And because it is such an important value in computer science, it is already defined as the very important MATLAB function eps.
What you used in your example is a tolerance, but it is certainly not the machine epsilon.

What would you input if you only want numbers in a matrix on the order of lets say 1e-2 (to keep it constant with your previous reply) set equal to zero but NOT the numbers that are negative ( ~mydata<0)
