Is there a standard function that returns the position(not value) of the max element of an array of values?
For example:
say i have an array like this:
sampleArray = [1, 5, 2, 9, 4, 6, 3]
I want a function that returns the integer of 3 that tells me that sampleArray[3] is the largest value in the array.
