Finding elements in an array that approximate a given value, to within a specified error tolerance, is a common task. This very simple script automates this task and furthermore outputs the relevant elemental indices in order of smallest to largest error, making it easy to select only the n closest matches.
Either a relative, percent or absolute error tolerance may be specified. Numeric arrays of all dimensions are supported.
