You can use the find fuction to return the index of the element that matches your search criteria.
i.e.
a = [1 3 4 5 6]
a =
1 3 4 5 6
>> find(a>4)
ans =
4 5
>> find(a==4)
ans =
3
>> b = a(find(a==4))
b =
4

kbits: there's nothing sustainable about "development" if "development" is equated with "economic growth". Economic growth is a pyramid scam- a geometric series which CANNOT be sustained, period.
I disagree. Economic growth (as defined by GDP growth) is absolutely essential for sustainable...
I agree that you can only learn the foundation concepts of a field by working through the hand calculations. There is a problem in EE high tech fields though where familiarity with tools is considered a job requirement. This puts the student in the tough position of deciding between learning...
My stresses include: vague overlapping job responsibilities with other people because we're a relatively small company; release schedules that change mid-release; boss who will not make decisions; project planning that is months behind the R&D work; burn rate too high and vague promises of more...
Starting early helps. Occasionally working from home if working on a big document has been my one tried and true coping strategy. Offsetting my lunch hour from the norm by half an hour helps to get an extra half hour free from interruptions. I've tried earplugs as well with some success.
I agree that it is important to quantify your contributions to the ongoing business success of a company if you expect to be promoted or given monetary rewards. I think that as engineers it is easy to lose sight of the business realities because we're very mired in the details of producing...
Comcokid,
Either you need to be genius material so that you can learn new material and assimilate rapidly, or you need to have no life and spend your hours outside of work studying new material. These are the facts of the modern economy. Hyper competetion is here to stay. At least the best...
I went to U Waterloo, so I have some understanding of the systems engineering department. The general joke about systems eng went something like:
civil - will tell you how to build it
mechanical - will tell you how to make it move
electrical - will tell you how to power it
systems - will tell...

I'm not sure if those tools meet your need. If you want to be able to play with layout parameters and such you'll need a...
So here's my situation. I graduated with an EE degree with excellent marks. I spent some work terms in telecom and after graduation found myself at a start-up company developing metro optical transport networks in the optical development group. I admit that I ended up in this area somewhat...
