It will be helpful if you attach a small sample dataset.

  1. Turn into categorical variable and set the output order as desired, or
  2. Create auxiliary variable of 1:3-->names in order wanted and sort by it.

Hi,
As suggested by dpb, you can convert the ‘label’ column of the table to be categorical and specify the order in which you want to sort the data. The following code snippet reflects the same, considering the data to be in a table named ‘dataset’.
% dataset.Var6 is the sixth column of the table
dataset.Var6 = categorical(dataset.Var6, {'stridor', 'wheeze', 'cracle'});
% The order of sort will be the order in which the categories are specified in creating the categorical array
dataset = sortrows(dataset,6);
Hope this helps.
