With the help of Numpy matrix.argmax() method, we are able to find the index value of the minimum element in the given matrix having one or more dimension.

Syntax : matrix.argmin()

Return : Return index number of minimum elements in matrix

Example #1 :
In this example we can see that with the help of matrix.argmax() method we are able to find the index of minimum element in a given matrix.




# import the important module in python
import numpy as np
           
# make a matrix with numpy
gfg = np.matrix('[1, 2, 3, 4]')
           
# applying matrix.argmin() method
geeks = gfg.argmin()
     
print(geeks)


Output:

0

Example #2 :




# import the important module in python
import numpy as np
           
# make a matrix with numpy
gfg = np.matrix('[1, 2, 3; 4, -5, 6; 7, 8, 9]')
           
# applying matrix.argmin() method
geeks = gfg.argmin()
     
print(geeks)


Output:

4
