Find mininmum value across the column

How I can find the minimum value across the column for each row. if I have a matrix of [51x4] and i have to compute minimum of the column value in each row.

Some tips that will help you write code and solve tasks like this all by yourself:

• read the documentation (e.g. min explains exactly how to do this).
• experiment, try out different ways of doing things, experiment, play with your data, and experiment. Your computer will not explode if you make a mistake.

From the documentation:

M = min(A,[],dim) returns the smallest elements along dimension dim. For example, if A is a matrix, then min(A,[],2) is a column vector containing the minimum value of each row.

Thanks Torsten for your guidance.

But what if have to check like which values across a row are less than a threshold. like

if true
 [minval, indexOfmin] = min((dist_mat,[],2)<5)
end

I tried this way like

if true
  for i = length(dist_mat)
 idx(i) = find (dist_mat(1,:)<5);
 end
end

But for this i have to check out all index and then i have to pick the value. and giving error

In an assignment A(I) = B, the number of elements in B and I must be the same.

if true
  idx(i) = find (dist_mat(1,:)<5);
end

Any simple solution to work out.

You mean

[row col] = find(dist_mat < 5)

?
