This Matlab function provides a way to find:
  1. unique 2-element rows, when rows have switched elements ("u"), i.e., for example, both rows "1 5" and "5 1" are present in the input matrix,
  2. rows with switched elements ("s"), and
  3. indices of rows with switched elements ("is").
Note: this function is designed ONLY for 2-column matrices as input.
% Example of usage:
clear all
clc
% input (here, the row "1 2" is repeated as row "2 1" and the the row "1 5" is repeated as row "5 1")
a = [1 2
4 5
5 1
2 1
1 2
5 2
5 1
1 5
2 9
5 1]
% output
[u,s,is] = unique_switch(a)
% command window
>> u =
1 2
1 5
2 9
4 5
5 2
>> s =
2 1
5 1
>> is{:}
