MATLAB: How to read all files that match certain names

file

I have files named using dates. I have a variable called 'allfiles' containing all files to access. Now I used another variable called 'datelist' containing dates list of variable 'allfiles' i.e. 2013-06-25, 2013-06-26,…
I have used this 'datelist' to separate weekdays and weekend days. Now I have trouble how to access the files of weekdays only or of weekend days only. I'm using R2014b
filenames are saved like this in the database (lots of them)
2013-06-25.mat
2013-06-26.mat
THANK YOU.

Whatever logic you used on your datelist variable to separate out weekend days should come with a set of indices for these. Just keep hold of these indices and use them for logical indexing into your allfiles variable, assuming they are stored in the same order.
