could anyone help me to solve the following issue in the code:

code:

a=[ 3.9035    4.4602    4.6417    3.8581    4.0078;
    4.2688    4.4651    3.8681    4.2601    3.8822;   
    4.6194    4.8077    4.6557    4.3956    4.3355;   
    3.3370    3.2847    2.6785    1.8889    2.8545;   
    4.0078    4.1569    3.3823    4.2836    3.9759;
    4.5405    4.5808    4.1582    4.4091    3.9926;
    4.5001    4.4627    4.3847    4.5679    4.6857;
    4.5029    4.4628    4.3840    4.5673    4.6851;
    2.7984    3.0607    3.2420    3.2805    3.0148]
[~, roworder] = sort(a, 1, 'descend')

with respect to the code i need to arrange it in descending order.

when i run the code it gives the following result

roworder =
     3     3     3     7     7
     6     6     1     8     8
     8     2     7     6     3
     7     8     8     3     1
     2     7     6     5     6
     5     1     2     2     5
     1     5     5     1     2
     4     4     9     9     9
     9     9     4     4     4

but with respect to the first column 4.6194 is the largest number and its place needs to be displayed by 1,when i run the code it displays 1 in the place of 4.5001 which is smaller when compared with 4.6194.could anyone please help me on this.

It is working proper.......it is arranging the columns in descending order.

a(roworder)

USe:

[b, roworder] = sort(a, 1, 'descend') ;
b
