Question

I want to display all the files in a folder in matlab. The following code is what i have so far

s = dir('D:\BOOKS');

Now it gives a struct with the following fields

    name
    date
    bytes
    isdir
    datenum

I need to loop through the name struct but how do i get its length ? my attempt

length(s.name); wont run
size(s.name); wont run

I am out of tries now. Could someone please help me out with this problem.

Answer 1

s = dir('D:\BOOKS');
for ii = 1:length(a);
fprintf('name %s\n',a(ii).name);
[pasthstr, name, extension] = fileparts(a(ii).name);
fprintf('name: %s, extension: %s\n', name, extension);
end;
