selecting values of a vector

Hi,

Is there a way to pick the element of a vector which is closest to 1.

Let's say A = [ 113; 14; 6; 43; 9; 2 ]

I was wondering if there's a method to pick the value which is closest to 1. which in this case is = 2

Thanks

 [minA, minidx] = min(abs(A - 1));
 A(minidx)
