function k = speciesIndex(tp, name)
% SPECIESINDEX Get the index of a species given the name.
% k = speciesIndex(tp,name)
% The index is an integer assigned to each species in sequence as it
% is read in from the input file.
%
% NOTE: In keeping with the conventions used by Matlab, this method
% returns 1 for the first species, 2 for the second, etc. In
% contrast, the corresponding method speciesIndex in the Cantera C++
% and Python interfaces returns 0 for the first species, 1 for the
% second one, etc. ::
%
% >> ich4 = speciesIndex(gas, 'CH4');
% >> iho2 = speciesIndex(gas, 'HO2');
%
% :param tp:
% Instance of class :mat:func:`ThermoPhase` (or another
% class derived from ThermoPhase)
% :param name:
% If name is a single string, the return value will be a integer
% containing the corresponding index. If it is an cell array of
% strings, the output will be an array of the same shape
% containing the indices.
% :return:
% Scalar or array of integers
