MATLAB: Converting a numeric array to a cell array containing vectors

Question

Hi,

Is there a way to convert a numeric array to a cell array of vectors? For example, suppose I have the following:

A=[1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3; 4 4 4 5 5 5 6 6 6];

And now suppose that I want to partition each row into vectors of size 1 by 3 and store these in a cell array. Effectively, I would like to obtain the cell array that is alternatively, manually given by the following:

B={[1 1 1],[2 2 2],[3 3 3];[4 4 4],[5 5 5],[6 6 6]}

Is there any way to do this automatically, assuming 1 by 3 vectors?

Thank you very much.
