Mathematica wizards, I've managed to cripple together code to do something that 
I feel must be doable more easily and/or faster.

S is a list of reals containing a signal with a prominent peak in 
amplitude. I simply want to find the index of the peak (x, the number of 
entries into the list where the peak occurs). Here's what I did.


For[i = 1, S[[i]] ? max[S], i++, x = i];

Can some suggest a better way, especially one not using a For loop?

Thanks, Rob
