array sorting 2D

Lets say I had a matrix A

A = [ 5,2,3,6,8;
      3,9,5,7,2;
      4,3,2,1,11]

so that when i sorted the matrix then becomes

A = [1,2,3,4,11;
     2,3,5,6,8;
     2,3,5,7,9;]

Almost everything makes sense in the answer, but why is 11 in the top row instead of the bottom row?

A = sortrows(sort(A,2));

Thank You. I was trying doing a double sort but that didnt work. This worked perfectly.

I suspect you want

A = reshape( sort(A(:)), size(A) );
