MATLAB: Save path

MATLABpathsave

Hello,
I have a problem with saving files in different paths and I am very thankful for your help.
Suppose there is a fix path:
path = 'D:\folder_1\folder_2';
If I wanna save a data set in the same path I would write:
save(fullfile(path,'FILE_NAME.MAT'));
However, base upon each data set I need to save them in different subfolders of folder_2 such as dataset_1 in folder_2A, dataset_2 in folder_2B, etc. Note that the base PATH is always the same. How can I do that?
Thanks so much 🙂

Something like that should do:
base_path = 'D:\folder_1\folder_2';
% You can also use dir to get the list of the subfolders
subfolder{1} = 'folder_2A';
subfolder{2} = 'folder_2B'; % etc...

fname{1} = 'dataset_1.mat';
fname{2} = 'dataset_2.mat'; % etc...
for k = 1:length(subfolder)
    save(fullfile(base_path,subfolder{k},fname{k}));
end
