Use a variable with a file extenstion to load files

1 view (last 30 days)
Hi,
I Have 51 files in their own directory all of .out extention created by a seperate program, all numbered 0 to 50.
ie
0.out
1.out
2.out
and so on til 50.out.
I need to load each file 1 by one to do calculations upon them within a for loop. How would I do this using the count variable to load the file, if the directory is set beforehand?
i.e.
%set directiory
cd(......)
%for loop
For count = 0:50,
data = count.out *<-----this line*
.....
Many thanks!

You can use sprintf or num2str. num2str is easier to use, but sprintf gives many more options including leading zeros.
