GROUP2CELL

group values into cells

GROUP2CELL - group values into cells
C = GROUP2CELL(V,G) returns a N-by-1 cell array in which the values V are grouped as row vectors into separate cells according to the values in G. Both G and V should have the same number of elements. N is the number of different values in G. Each cell in C is a row vector.
[C,GR] = GROUP2CELL(V,G) also returns the groups in GR, so that C{i} = V(G==GR(i)).
The grouping variable can be a cell array of strings.

Examples:
[C, GG] = group2cell([1 2 3 4 5 6],[1 6 2 1 6 1]) ;
% returns the cell array {[1 4 6] ; [3] ; [2 5]} in C and [1 2 6] in GG

years = [1956 1978 1982 1987 2001 2006] ;
temp = {'normal','cold','hot','normal','cold','hot'} ;
C = group2cell(years,temp)
