i want sort function to sort the element of matrix except the 1&2 column still fixed. depending at the length of each row (except 0)

like that

a=[1 2 5 2 1 0 0          
2 3 4 0 0 0
2 4 0 0 0 0
3 2 0 0 0 0
3 3 1 4 0 0 
3 4 5 0 0 0
1 4 5 0 0 0
1 3 0 0 0 0]

the first row contain 3 element (after 1&2 column except 0)

the second row contain 2 element

the third row contain 1 element

after sorting

a= [ 1 2 4 0 0 0 0

2 3 4 0 0 0
2 5 2 1 0 0
3 2 0 0 0 0
3 4 5 0 0 0
3 3 1 4 0 0
1 3 0 0 0 0
1 4 5 0 0 0]

 b=[a,sum(logical(a),2)]; 
 result=sortrows(b,[1,2,size(b,2)]); 
 result(:,end)=[]
