MATLAB: Need help for saveas function for saving multiple figures

figuresaveas

Hey guys,

Need some help with the saveas function. How can I save multiple figures that are being generated by a for loop? For example, this is what I have so far:

for k = 1:10
figure(k);
plot(foo)
saveas(k,'???')

How can I change my string at every iteration? I need the string to be descriptive with respect to the content of the figure.

 should be saveas not save
 saveas(gca,temp)

MATLAB: How to save multiple plots in one folder

Note that, it is not needed to use figure(k), you can simply use only one figure and update it every time and save.

path = pwd ;   % mention your path 
myfolder = 'myfolder' ;   % new folder name 
folder = mkdir([path,filesep,myfolder]) ;
path  = [path,filesep,myfolder] ;
for k = 1:10
    figure(k);
    plot(rand(1,10));
    temp=[path,filesep,'fig',num2str(k),'.png'];
    saveas(gca,temp);
end

MATLAB: How to save the figure

num_of_fig = 1;
fichier=fullfile('directory','filename') ;
if true
  figure(k);
  name = strcat('figure',num2str(num_of_fig ));
   % save figure  name as figure1,figure2,figure3   
  saveas(gcf,strcat(name,'jpg'));  
   num_of_fig  = num_of_fig +1;
end
