i have a matrix A = [1 3 -8;4 -5 19]
and i have b = A(:,3), which gives b = [-8;19]
for cramers rule i now need to replace the 1st column of A with the column matrix b and only give me a 2x2 matrix disregarding the 3rd column, my result needs to be...
A = [-8 3;19 -5] how do i do this???

A = [1 3 -8;4 -5 19]
B=fliplr(A(:,2:3))

You can just change the order like below
A(:,[3 2]) % b in first column
A(:,[1 3]) % b in second column
