For example, I have matrix A:
A = [9 15 1 16
15 9 1 16
1 6 2 4]
The sorted matrix is:
B= [1 9 15 16
1 9 15 16
1 2 4 6]
For each rows of A, I want to determine if each element corresponds to the first, second, third or fourth position, as follows:
A'= [2 3 1 4
3 2 1 4
1 4 2 3]
Thanks for help

[~,ii] = sort(A,2);
[~,out] = sort(ii,2)

Note: Your A' doesn't correspond to the exact position. See https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/sort.html#bt8nojg-1-I
A = [9 15 1 16 ;...
15 9 1 16 ;...
1 6 2 4 ];
Adash = [2 3 1 4 ;...
3 2 1 4 ;...
1 4 2 3];
[B,I]=sort(A,2) % B - sorted matrix , I - position of the original values --> see doc sort for explanation
Gives:
B =
1 9 15 16
1 9 15 16
1 2 4 6
I =
3 1 2 4
3 2 1 4
1 3 4 2
To compare A' you could do somethig like below:
Adash==I
Gives:
ans =
3×4 logical array
0 0 0 1
1 1 1 1
1 0 0 0
