eval - data file that includes headers
eval - data file that includes headers
(OP)
All,
I try to create an array with some data files and the code I use is the next one:
files=dir('F:\Strain Data\January\*.dat');
d={};
for i=1:length(files)
eval(['d{' int2str(i) '}=load(files(' int2str(i) ').name);']);
end
The code seems to work. However, my data files have headers! In that case the function "load" does not apply!!!
Any help?

But thank you for your time. However, if that's how feel please do not answer any of my next questions. I hope I didn't force you to do so far. But really thank you especially for the first time you answered my question. It gave me a really good idea about which concept to follow in the beginning.

RE: eval - data file that includes headers
In case anyone stumbles across this thread looking for an answer, one solution might be to use the dlmread command, which allows you to skip header rows.
CODE --> Matlab
files=dir('F:\Strain Data\January\*.dat'); for n=1:length(files) data{n}=dlmread('files(n).name','\t',1); %For a tab-delimited file. Skips first row. endThis is not as complicated as the OP suggested.
