MATLAB: Overwriting the folder in matlab

folder overwriting

I've created the folder to write images on it by the code

 outputFolder = fullfile(cd, 'folder_name');
  if ~exist(outputFolder, 'dir')
    mkdir(outputFolder);

and I'm in need to overwrite the same folder for writing another set of images. Is there any way to delete all the existing images in the folder for writing new images???

You just need to specify the full path of the folder you want to delete to rmdir. If you supply just the folder name, it assumes that folder is in the current directory. You can use fullfile to build the full path of the folder:

parentfolder = 'C:\somewhere\on\the\drive';
foldername = 'deleteme'
rmdir(fullfile(parentfolder, foldername), 's');
