[R] how to extract the maximum from a matrix?

Dear UseRs, I have a very simple question. I have a big matrix (say x) including probabilities (values in (0,1)). I have to store in a list the names of the row and the column where max(x) is located. How can I proceed? Thanks in advance for your assistance! mirko
