Being given the number among P of a data, an attempt is made to find the number among N of said data in a group of N data incorporating P selected data. The sequence numbers of these P data appear in a register having N locations and the sequence number of the chosen data among P appears in a second register with P locations. The locations of the second register are connected to the rows of a switching circuit, each of these rows having N cells, which connect the input of one cell to the following cell of the same rank or to the following cell of the lower rank, as a function of the content of the corresponding location of the first register. Thus, at the outputs of the columns there are signals, whereof only one is at a level different from the others and corresponding to the number j among N of the chosen data.
