How to shuffle randomly first raw of a matrix so its corresponding value in the column shuffles with it

1 view (last 30 days)
I have a matrix
X=[N1...N5 ; M1...M5];
I want to shuffle the N values so they have their corresponding M values in the second row.
For example:
If N values are shuffled as: N3, N1, N5, N4, N2
then, the new vector will be:
X=[N3, N1, N5, N4, N2 ; M3, M1, M5, M4, M2]
** This matrix is just an example, I will have to shuffle a much larger matrix a several times (each time shuffles randomly)
Help please

X=rand(2,5)
X = 2×5
0.1792 0.3018 0.7249 0.2244 0.7763 0.9590 0.4391 0.9836 0.8612 0.9649
X=X(:,[3,1,5,4,2])
X = 2×5
0.7249 0.1792 0.7763 0.2244 0.3018 0.9836 0.9590 0.9649 0.8612 0.4391
