MATLAB: How to save a file with the same name as the foldername

foldernamesave

This is my code inside a for loop.

cd(all_names(nn).name); %all_names.name has the name of the folder
save ('all_names(nn).name','variable')

It doesnt give me an error message, but saves my file as "all_names(nn).name" instead of the name of the folder

Best Answer

save (all_names(nn).name,'variable')

all_names(nn).name is already a string. Your usage of it in cd() is correct

Try this:

% Get the name of the file that the user wants to save.
% Note, if you're saving an image you can use imsave() instead of uiputfile().
startingFolder = userpath % Or "pwd" or wherever you want.
defaultFileName = fullfile(startingFolder, '*.*');
[baseFileName, folder] = uiputfile(defaultFileName, 'Specify a file');
if baseFileName == 0
  % User clicked the Cancel button.
  return;
end
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName)
% Now save whatever variables you want into a mat file
save(fullFileName, 'yourVariable1', 'yourVariable2');
