Simpler with a numeric vector:
>> V = [1,2,3,1,4,6];
>> List = {V(V==1),V(V~=1)};
>> List{1}
ans =
1 1
>> List{2}
ans =
2 3 4 6
Note: to get V from the cell array C:
V = [C{:}];
But if you really want to write inefficient code using a loop:
List = cell(1,2);
for k = 1:numel(C)
if isequal(C{k}, 1)
List{1} = [List{1},C{k}];
else
List{2} = [List{2},C{k}];
end
end
which produces exactly the same output less efficiently using more lines of code.
