How to create a table from a bigger table based on category ?

I am working on a data set which I imported to a table from a csv file. The table contains 8 columns. The data type of the columns is as follows : one column is categorical while the other columns are number (double). I would like to create sub tables, each one corresponds to a category. Anyone to help do that. Thanks in advance>

You probably do not want to do that, but there's not enough information to go on.

In any case

T2 = T(T.C == 'somevalue',:)

does what you are asking. But you probably do not need to do that. You will end up with a bunch of separate tables. You are likely better off having one table, and doing grouped calculations with things like varfun or splitapply.

Thanks for taking the time to answer me. I have already tried what you proposed but it didn't work. Let me give you more details. Actually, I am working on a time series data set of airplane flight parameters. The data set includes data related to hundreds of airplanes, hence, I want to group each airplane data in a table. I chose to set the airplane registration number as the criteria of grouping and I set it as "categorical". T2 = T(T.C == 'somevalue',:) This line only works in case you know how many airplane you have in the data set which is not my case. I hope that I gave you enough information now, thanks again !!

Depending on what computations you want to perform on each grouped airplane data can try using groupsummary on the entire table.
