Please format your code and explain what is the grouping.

Pat, please try to imagine yourself as a reader who knows nothing about your problem. It is impossible to understand what you want to do. Please provide more detail.

i want to divide this data into 5 groups so taht the values in the column 1 and 2 should not change....... have to do this for large data also,can anyone help

@Pat: As mentioned before, it is not clear how the groups are distinguished. I do not see the connection between "The values in the column 1 and 2 should not change" and the example data in your question. Please explain the rule you want to implement.

But you've accepted an answer already. This means, that the posted code solved your problem. Sure?

Answer 2

[Fangjun Jiang]

a=[1        9
2        4 
3        5
4        6
5        1
6        9
7        0
8        3
9        1
0        2 ];
b=mat2cell(a,repmat(2,size(a,1)/2,1),size(a,2));
c=cell2mat(b');

[Jan]

@Fangjun: Pat asks for 5 groups, but he showed 6 groups. Your code replies a {2 x 10} cell.

[Fangjun Jiang]

I see! Then b or b' should be the outcome.

The OP doesn't seem to be responsive at all based on his history.
