MATLAB: How to save multiple figures with partly same variable name

savingvariable name

I want to save many figures in one script with partly the same name. Therefore I want to define a variable in the beginning and then have this part in the saving name of all figures with slightly different ending. For example:
name=('picture')
figure %1
surf(peaks)
savefig('Peaks' name '.fig')  %Peakspicture.fig
figure %2
scatter(peaks)
savefig('scatterbla' picture '.fig')  %scatterblapicture.fig

Best Answer

Use sprintf:
 name = 'Picture';
 fnm = sprintf('Peaks_%s.fig',name);
 savefig(fnm,...)
 fnm = sprintf('scatterbla_%s.fig',name);
 savefig(fnm,...)
