Thread Subject: What's wrong in my tiny little code?

Hi -

I was wondering anything wrong in this code. It should save many files to another folder, however it just saved them in one file in which the file name is (filename(n).name). Please give me a hand.

Michael

function pad_wx_data
filename = dir ('*.txt');
n=1;
[i,j]=size(filename);
while n<i+1
x = load(filename(n).name);
[rr,cc] = size(x);
day_number = datenum(x(:,1:3));
full_day_number = [min(day_number):max(day_number)]';
y = [full_day_number NaN*ones(length(full_day_number),cc-3)];
[jnk,uix,uiy] = intersect(day_number,full_day_number);
y(uiy,2:size(y,2)) = x(uix,4:cc);
save('/Users/cks/Documents/jon/hfdata/us/WI/test/perl/test_4/out/product/(filename(n).name)', 'y')
n=n+1;
end
clear temp n i j

The line of code above is the problem. The save file name is "(filename(n).name)". Try the following change:

save(['/Users/cks/Documents/jon/hfdata/us/WI/test/perl/test_4/out/product/' filename(n).name], 'y')

This should concatenate filename(n).name onto the end of the path.
