idxof.m

Allows interaction specification by spin label rather than number.

Syntax

    idx=idxof(sys,label)

Arguments

   sys    - Spinach input structure that
            includes a sys.labels field
            with unique labels

   label  - label whose index is to be returned

Outputs

   idx    - the index of the spin, an integer

Examples

The following spin system specification, where chemists had provided the parameters using their own labels, would have been laborious and error-prone without the ability to refer to spins by their chemical labels.
