Hello,
a question just in case I missed something in the manuals:
Is there a more concise notation to access the last element e.g. of a
vector? I am writing things like:
x = rand(1,10);
lastx = x(1,columns(x));
Wouldn't it be snappy to write something Python-like:
lastx = x(1,-1);
and then
butlastx = x(1,-2);
etc.
Anybody have any hints?
Norbert
