Whenever you do not know the syntax of a command, simply look at the documentation: help save and doc save.

[Walter Roberson]

If you have a new enough version of MATLAB, you can use matfile() to store additional array elements into an array stored in a .mat file.

You can use -append to store additional information into a .mat file, but you need to use a different variable name each time or else the existing content with that variable name will get overwritten.

Saving your first image

im1={imread('first_image')}
save yourfile im1

Adding a new image

im1=imread('news_image')
im=load('yourfile')
im1=im.im1
im1{end+1}
save yourfile im1

[Elysi Cochin]

how can i display, each of the images in a different figure from this matfile.... please do reply....

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

im=load('yourfile')
im1=im.im1
for k=1:numel(im1)
 figure
 imshow(im1{k})
end

[Elysi Cochin]

sir but i'm getting this error...

 ??? Cell contents reference from a non-cell array object.

 Error in ==> Untitled at 19
 imshow(im1{k})

[Azzi Abdelmalek]

Have you used?

im=load('yourfile')

and when saving the first image

 im1={imread('first_image')}
