how to sort an array based on a specific column and display it in another array

i have attached below an array named sector1 and want to sort the array based on the last column and display the type of the first element (minimum) after sorting as 'cm' and others as 'ch' as other column in same array

[dpb]

Please paste the text of the input arrays rather than the image so folks can do something with it including being able to read it w/o excess gyrations) and then explain more clearly the desired output. I don't understand what the last phrase about 'cm/ch' is intended to say.

[~,idx] = sort(sector1(:,end));

and use the index variable idx to sort whichever other variables you wish to.
