MATLAB: Problem when using cd command

Question

I define my path as:

CurrPath = 'C:\Users\chaos\Desktop\cse_587\hw6';

What is wrong with issuing these commands?:

>> cd CurrPath or >> cd('CurrPath')

Both gives this error:

Error using cd

Cannot CD to CurrPath (Name is nonexistent or not a directory).

Best Regards,

Answer 1

cd(CurrPath)
