MATLAB: Sort an array and store them into subarrays

arrayMATLABsort

Hi, I have a question regarding sorting arrary and store them into subset. How can I sort an array according to the second column value and store them into subarrays. and get the value of second column. So for an arrary like the following, I would know there are 3 groups(1,2,3) according column 2 and I would get 3 subsets. Thanks a lot.

A = [ 1  1  9999.69307  3.374E-28
        1  1  9999.72441  4.662E-27
        1  9  9999.73112  2.083E-29
        1  9  9999.93918  4.851E-29
        1  1  9999.95707  1.353E-26
        1  3  9999.69307  3.374E-28

        1  3  9999.99707  1.353E-26];
B=sortrows(A,2); % Sort A according to second column;
out=accumarray(A(:,2),(1:size(A,1))',[],@(x){A(x,:)})
out(cellfun(@isempty,out))=[]
