Loading multiple files into MATLAB

[Old Nick]

matlab load multiple files

I have created several hundred text files of data (64x64 arrays). I need to load them into matlab (preferably into a 3D array - of 64x64xnumbefOfFiles.).
The file names of the data are incremantal, i.e. file_1, file_2 etc.

I am hoping there is a way of doing this with a loop.

And would it be possible to create a similar array from part of the files, it is only around 100 elements in the middle of each file that I am interested in comparing.

Cheers for any help,

Nick

Added after 1 hours 14 minutes:

I've managed to work it out, well the first part anyway.

firstFile = 1;
lastFile = 5;
nSamples = 10;
columns = 2;

for n = firstFile : 1 : lastFile

        number = num2str( n );

	file = strcat('file',number,'.dat');
	stored(:,:,n) = load( file );
end

I would still like to know if it's possible to load part of a file(array of numbers) in such a way.

Cheers,

Nick

load multiple files matlab

Well!

As per my little experience ... I was Unable to use the strcat strategy ... I remember it did not supported variable inside it

SO what I did was to place all the files of interest in one directory

USE dir function

and its .name Construct to read images and append them to form a two D matrix

I hope you can try the same with text files ....

I had a lot of suuccessful play reading files this way

Hope U get an idea
