MATLAB: Running a loop and saving separate files

loopssaving

Hi I am running a loop and saving each file separately.
The syntax I am using is
for i = 1:10
RUN PROGRAM
save(sprintf('datafile_%02d',i), 'phi')
end
So this means I am expecting all the phi's to be saved in different filenames. But I only get the most recent (overwritten?) and I do not get 10 separate files.

No, i is changing so the filename is changing. Try to split it up
for k = 1 : 10
% code to RUN PROGRAM and change phi...
% Now save this phi in a new file.
filename = sprintf('datafile_%02d.mat', k);
message = sprintf('About to save phi into new file %s.', filename);
uiwait(helpdlg(message));
save(filename, 'phi');
end
Now see if the filenames are all the same or different.
