I have 2 cell of strings and I would like to order them according to the first one.
A = {'a';'b';'c'}
B = {'b';'a';'c'}
idx = [2,1,3] % TO FIND
B=B(idx);
I would like to find a way to find idx
...
This seems to be significantly faster than using ismember
(although admittedly less clear than @rayryeng's answer). With thanks to @Divakar for his correction on this answer.
[~, indA] = sort(A);
[~, indB] = sort(B);
idx = indA(indB);
