Created by Selvaraaju Murugesan

Remove the entire row and column from the matrix containing specific values. The specified value can be a scalar or a vector. For example x is given by x =

     8     1     6
     3     5     7
     4     9     2

and I specify an input value of n=3. The value 3 is in 2nd row and 1st column. So the output matrix should remove entire 2nd row and 3rd column. Output:[ 1 6; 9 2]

remember the input value can be vector too !

The values in the original matrix are unique?

I think the instructions should be amended to:

"....should remove entire 2nd row and 1st column."
