Hi,

I have a cell array which I would like to sort according to the first column. But when I try using

high_emp_sort = sort(high_empathy_ID_factors);
% or
high_emp_sort = sortrows(high_empathy_ID_factors);

... then I only get back errors. Could somebody kindly help?

Jeff

high_empathy_ID_factors.mat

Did you mean by the first numerical column? Like this:

%====================================================================================
% Read in data.
storedStructure = load('high_empathy_ID_factors.mat');
ca = storedStructure.high_empathy_ID_factors;
data = cell2mat(ca(:, 2:end))
data = 17×4
    18    12    14    16
    17    19    15    11

%====================================================================================
% Sort by column 1.
fprintf('Sorting data by column 1.\n');

[sortedData, sortOrder] =  sortrows(data, 1);
%====================================================================================
% Sort original cell array also.
fprintf('Sorting original cell array in the same order of rows.\n');

ca = ca(sortOrder, :)
ca = 17×5 cell array

Or did you really mean by the long alphanumeric hexadecimal strings in the first column? Like this:

%====================================================================================
% Read in data.
storedStructure = load('high_empathy_ID_factors.mat')
storedStructure = struct with fields:
    high_empathy_ID_factors: {17×5 cell}
ca = storedStructure.high_empathy_ID_factors;
data = cell2mat(ca(:, 2:end))
data = 17×4
    18    12    14    16
    17    19    15    11
     8    18    14    22
    25    11    17     7
    16    22     9     5
    11    13    14    10
    13    23    16    19
    10    18    17    25
     9    14    14    15
    15    18    17    10
[rows, columns] = size(data);
fprintf('Read %d rows by %d columns into data.\n', rows, columns);
Read 17 rows by 4 columns into data.
%====================================================================================
% Convert hex numbers in column 1 to decimal
for row = 1 : rows
    c = char(ca{row, 1});
    % Can only convert the first 16 digits.
    numbers(row) = hex2dec(c(1:16));
end
