MATLAB: split long 2D matrix into the third dimension

Question

Say I have the following matrix:

A = randi(10, [6 3])
     7    10     3
     5     5     7
    10     5     1
     6     5    10
     4     9     1
     4    10     1

And I would like to extract each 2 rows and put them into the third dimension, so the result would be like:

B(:,:,1) =
     7    10     3
     5     5     7
B(:,:,2) =
    10     5     1
     6     5    10
B(:,:,3) =
     4     9     1
     4    10     1

I can obviously do this with a for loop, just wondering how to do it more elegantly as one-liner using permute/reshape/.. (note matrix size and step must be parameters)

% params
step = 5;
r = 15;
c = 3;

% data
A = randi(10, [r c]);
B = zeros(step, c, r/step); % assuming step evenly divides r

% fill
counter = 1;
for i=1:step:r
    B(:,:,counter) = A(i:i+step-1, :);
    counter = counter + 1;
end

Answer 1

Here's a one-line solution using RESHAPE and PERMUTE:

C = 3;          % Number of columns
R = 6;          % Number of rows
newR = 2;       % New number of rows
A = randi(10,[R C]);  % 6-by-3 array of random integers
B = permute(reshape(A',[C newR R/newR]),[2 1 3]);

This of course requires that newR divides evenly into R.
