Thread Subject: saving withina loop

Hi

I want to save a matrix within a loop with a filename associated with the loop number so for ex

for k=1:10
   matrix

  save matrix1 % or matrix2 matrix3 and so on with increasing loop number

end

How can I make the filename dependent on the loop number?

thanks

Use sprintf() to generate filenames that depend on your loop number, or any other variables. It's simple - it works just like the sprintf() you're already famiiliar with in C.
E.g.:

baseFileName = sprintf('matrix %d', k);
fullFileName = fullfile(folder, baseFileName); % Prepend the path/folder
