Want to weight Histogram entries by value

I am using a nx2 array to populate a Histogram

23 2

12 2

85 3

38 3

12 4

09 2

97 4

and want a histogram (or bar chart?) with second attribute as the X axis and the first attribute to be summed up rather then the elements just counted, so the hist would plot

44 2

123 3

111 4

Rather than

3 2

2 3

2 4

Can you help suggest how to use BAR or HISTOGRAM to achieve this please?

Many thanks

data = [
    23    2
    12    2
    85    3
    38    3
    12    4
    09    2
    97    4
    ];

[groups,group_ids] = findgroups(data(:,2))

groups = 7×1

1 1 2 2 3 1 3

group_ids = 3×1

2 3 4

totals = splitapply(@(x)sum(x(:,1)),data,groups)

totals = 3×1

44 123 109

bar(group_ids,totals)

data = [
    23    2
    12    2
    85    3
    38    3
    12    4
    09    2
    97    4
    ];

[V, G] = groupsummary(data(:, 1), data(:, 2), @sum)

V = 3×1

44 123 109

G = 3×1

2 3 4
