Problem 44500. Find the starting index of a consecutive condition

Created by Shaul Salomon

Solve Later

Given a logical vector v, and a positive integer n, return the smallest index i that satisfies:

all( v(i : i+n-1) ) == true

For Example,

v = logical([0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0]);
i = consecutiveFind(v, 4);

Then:

i = 6

If there is no sequence of n consecutive true, then i should be an empty array.

The test suite is not enough because it does not contain any case that the number of consecutive true bits is exactly same as n.

This is exactly what I was looking for.
I knew strcmp gives the same functionality for char arrays, but it didn't occur to me I can simply use it for logicals and doubles.
Thanks
