Is findin still supported in the current version of Julia?

I get the following error:

`help?\> findin  
search: findmin findmin! findfirst

No documentation found.

Binding findin does not exist.`

Hi @stu,

@Tamas_Papp is giving you a way to solve the problem of finding a replacement of a deprecated method in general: just call it under version 0.7.

For the specific case of `findin` you would find that it has been deprecated in favor of `findall`
