MATLAB: How to make a new matrix that consist of specific column of it’s old matrix? (separate matrix)

Question

I have matrix like this:

Data =

     2     3     7     1     9
     1     4     7     8     2
     5     2     3     4     1

then i wanto make a new matrix that consist consist all of item in matrix above, except column 2. then, the output matrix will be like this:

Data =

     2     7     1     9
     1     7     8     2
     5     3     4     1

then column 2 will be in vektor Y, like this:

Y =

     3     
     4     
     2

what can i do? thanks before 🙂
