How can i get the x value for a chosen y value?

2 views (last 30 days)
I've plot my spectrum with "plot (abs(wave));". I successfully got my Y max value with "maxY = max(abs(wave))". But now I want the X axis value that corresponds to my maximum Y value. Anybody can help? Thank you in advance!

[maxY index] = max(abs(wave));
index is either the X value, or something you can use to get the x values, eg,
x = 1:54:23423
correspondingX = x(index);
