Same t as my previous post, same way to get s.

In[1]:= m = Length[t = {2,1,1,2,1,3,3,2,1,2}]

Out[1]= 10

In[2]:= s = Table[#==j&/@t,{j,3}]

Out[2]= {{False,True,True,False,True,False,False,False,True,False},
         {True,False,False,True,False,False,False,True,False,True},
         {False,False,False,False,False,True,True,False,False,False}}

But a better way to get sa.

In[3]:= sa = SparseArray[Thread[Transpose@{t,Range@m}->True],
                         {3,m},False]

Out[3]= SparseArray[<10>,{3,10},False]

In[4]:= sa == s

Out[4]= True
