Question

I would link to do some commands to:

• access to folder which isn’t in my current working folder
• list the content of folder
• access to a file and read it to search a specific string

Answer 1

If you have an image file in jpeg format in another folder named myimage and a text file called mytext, use:

prefix_image='myimage';
prefix_data='mytext';
fileformat='.jpg';
dataformat='.txt';
folder='C:\Users\khaled\Documents\MATLAB';

image = imread(strcat(folder,prefix_image,fileformat));

data=textread(strcat(folder,prefix_data,fileformat),'%f');
