directoryfilefor loopindexindexingloop

FileBaseName='MyDataFile_'                     %set file base name Mydatafile
FolderBaseName='Case_'                          %set folder base name case_
parameter=[1 12]                                       %using these array values, CONTENT of each CASE file is written
for i=1:length(parameter)
    filename=[FileBaseName,num2str(i)]                 %indexed filenames
    folderName=[FolderBaseName,num2str(i)]        %indexed foldernames 
                mkdir([FolderBaseName,num2str(i)])                     % make folder first
    fileID = fopen(filename,'w');                                           %open file for writing
               THC=parameter(i)                                            %choose parameter value for writing
    fprintf(fileID, 'chosen value is %2.2f', THC);                      %write the content to file
          fclose(fileID)                                                      %close the file
% for j=1:1:length(parameter)
% move CASE1 TO FOLDER1 (BUT HOW ??)
%I TRIED USING MOVEFILE but its not working
%END
end

>> Files="file_"+(1:5)
Files = 
  1×5 string array
    "file_1"    "file_2"    "file_3"    "file_4"    "file_5"
>> Folders="folder_"+(1:5)
Folders = 
  1×5 string array
    "folder_1"    "folder_2"    "folder_3"    "folder_4"    "folder_5"
    
>> for i=1:5, movefile(Files{i},Folders{i}); end
