link multiple data files

Obviously new to MATLAB.. I have written a script & would like to run the script on multiple files without inputting a new file name each time. Thanks

If all of the files live in the same directory, you can use the LS command. See below for a couple examples:

a = ls;
a = ls('C:\class\*.m');

This will return a char array that you can convert into a cell array using CELLSTR:

b = cellstr(a);

Then, run through your script with each file name contained in the cell array.

Thanks,

Is 'C:\class\*.m' the current folder?

Using the above it seems I still have to input each individual file in my script
