Usage:
ind = array2ind(SIZE, COORDINATES_AS_ARRAY)
Example:
g = magic(5);
ind = array2ind([5 5], [3 2])
g(ind)
returns the same value as if you had called
g(3,2)
Useful for when the coordinates for a matrix element are stored as an array and avoids the current method of:
b = [3 2];
g(b(1), b(2))
While this is suitable for some cases, it's not generalized or adaptable to changing sizes of b and g.
