I want to ascend cell

hey , I want to ascend the rows based on a specific columns in the cell array . here's an example

The input in work space is

cellmobility{1,1}

x 4

y 2

z 1

g 3

the output i seek in work space is

cellmobility{1,1}

z 1

y 2

g 3

x 4

There might be an easier way of doing this but the following should work..

a{1,1}={'x 4';'y 2';'z 1';'g 3'};
a{1,1}
p=cell2mat(a{1,1});                           %convertign to mat
check=str2double(cellstr(p(:,3)));     % getting col 3, i.e. the num to sort
[l,row]=sort(check);                           % sorting 
out{1,1}=p(row,:);                               % reorder according to sort
out{1,1}

well, Its working but i was making x and y and z and g for simplicity assume these variables are numbers .,

[Ahmed Hassaan]

a{1,1}=[10 4 4;5 4 2;3 4 1;2 4 3];

a{1,1}

p=(a{1,1}); %convertign to mat

check=(p(:,3)); % getting col 3, i.e. the num to sort

[l,row]=sort(check); % sorting

out{1,1}=p(row,:); % reorder according to sort

out{1,1}

c{1,1} = cellstr(sortrows(char(c{1,1}),3));
