MATLAB: Prase a sequence (of existing and not existing) folders

sequence of folders

Dear all, I would like to parse a sequence of folders with the below structure.
Mi.j
i=1..2 j=1…16
the problem is that a for loop will not work, as not all these folders exist. How I can skip one non existing folder the smart way?

help exist
EXIST('A','dir') checks only for directories.
break() can terminate a for-loop.
continue() passes control to the next iteration.
for i=1:2
    for j=1:16
        Folder=sprintf('M%d.%d',i,j);
        if ~exist(Folder,'dir')
            continue;
        end
        %do your stuff
    end
end
