Out of Memory error

MATLAB script gives error "out of memory" for some files only. If it was a script issue all files should display out of memory. however only sometimes it is seen why so ? Script converts wav or raw audio file to data and generates coefficients using DTFT.

Not all "scripts" try to allocate the same amount of memory. It depends what operations are going on inside the function.

[Walter Roberson]

In particular the size of the file is going to make a difference.

Thank you Matt. I agree that memory requirement will vary depending on the operations however if I am using same operations/script but using different input file then I do not see a reason for out of memory.

[Walter Roberson]

Are the input files all exactly the same size?

Is it possible that the error shows up after you have done several files? Such as if you were failing to delete the results of your calculation before you moved on to the next one?
