Details:

According to the documentation, nanmax and nanmin should return a second
output, with the index of the values, see
http://octave.sourceforge.net/statistics/function/nanmax.html

however, looking at the code of the function, the output idx is not
specified.
I suggest to change all the occurrences of:


v = max(...


into:


[v, idx] = max(...


Similar changes should be applied to nanmin. I'm using Octave 3.7.7 and
statistics 1.2.2.
Thank you very much for developing these useful tools
