MATLAB: How to use variables in mkdir

foldermkdirvariables

Hello;

Let's say I have four different variables (a, b, c, d) and I want to create folders using these variables as the name of my folder (folder name= a.b.c.d) How can I do this using mkdir?

Thanks, Tina

MATLAB: Can I use fullfile() to read two subfolders

Hello Yanagawa,

You should use for loop for that operation to get one by one each folder path.

Try this (also detects all folders in a parent folder). You can create a cell array of folder names you wish in folders variable.

Main_Folder = 'C:/users';
files = dir(Main_Folder);
idx = [files.isdir];
folders = {files(idx).name};  % this can be your  folders = {'Faces','NonFaces'}
% If You can also only define folders you don't need above code. 
subfolder = cell(1,numel(folders));
for i = 1:numel(folders)
 subfolder{i} = fullfile(Main_Folder, folders{i})
 cd(subfolder{i})  % Change your directory to i'th subfolder
 % do what you want (your file extraction, etc) in that current directory
end
