Sorting a cell array (text) in the order of a colperm solution

Hello Community! I have a 21x1 cell array containing text in the format 'XYZ'. Its name is nNames. I also have a 1x21 double array from the solution of colperm(). Its name is sortB.

Now I would like to bring the Text array in the order of the colperm order. I tried without success:

namessort=sort(nNames,sortB)

Is there any possibility to do this sorting or at least to print a List or Table where I can bring the text and the order together. Possibly very stupid, but this table could be processed in EXCEL - sorry for this.

Do you have a suggestion?

Answer 1

namessort=nNames(sortB);

Does this gives what you want? If not, sorry but I haven't understood what you want to do.

To display a table with the text of your cell and the order provided by sortB:

sortB = sortB';
myTable = table(nNames,sortB)

Thank you! It works. It must be:

myTable = table(namessort,sortB)

Then everything is like I wanted it to be!

Thank you!
