Compare two matrices and select max one based on the a column

1 view (last 30 days)
I have two matrixes and I want to compare the last column. Then select the max one and the whole corresponding row.
For example
A = [ 1 , 4, 5; 1, 4, 6];
B = [2, 6, 6; 2, 5 , 9];
The next matrix based on the last column max will be
C = [2, 6, 6; 2, 5 , 9];
Anyway to help, please

If I understood correctly:
C = A;
replacebyB = B(:, end) > A(:, end);
C(replacebyB, :) = B(replacebyB, :);
The above gives priority to A when the last columns are equal.

C = max(A,B)

Something like this without the forloop
C = zeros(size(A));
for i = 1:11
c = [A(i,:);B(i,:)];
[Max_v, idx] = max(c(:,end));
C(i,:) = c(idx,:);
end
