Problem 29. Nearest Numbers
Given a row vector of numbers, find the indices of the two nearest numbers.
Examples:
[index1 index2] = nearestNumbers([2 5 3 10 0 -3.1])
index1 = 1 index2 = 3
[index1 index2] = nearestNumbers([-40 14 22 17])
index1 = 2 index2 = 4
Notes
- The indices should be returned in order such that index2 > index1.
- There will always be a unique solution.
