Hi there,

I have read on some websites that writing macros for Matlab is not advisable? I am trying to write several as I am about to be embarking on the same process for a number of different data sets. twenty five to be exact. I would like to do simple things like write macro to call my data set put it through two or three functions that I have written and then save the results in a particular place. Is that possible? Is there any good literature I can get on the topic?

Also I was wondering if there was a way to get the script to run operations in batches for example I need to use my fucntion on various files and run it through the night so I want to write a macro that can tell me prgram to switch files after the results have been obtained.

It kinda depends what you mean by "macro". VB macros can be functions or subs, but you can access them like shortcuts.

Step 1: Write a "function" that takes as input, an argument for filename in, and filename out, opens & reads your input file, does the operations to it, and saves the output in the desired output filename.

Step 2: Write a script that feeds the appropriate input & output filenames to that function.

Step 3: Run the script.

Eg, file1, called "fred.m"

 function fred(in,out)
 x = load(in); % or importdata or csvread or xlsread or whatever your reading function is.
 y = sin(x);
 save(out,'y')

file 2: called "process_it_all"

 in = {'file1.mat','file2.mat'};
 out = {'wibble','wobble'};
 for i = 1:numel(in)
  fred(in{i},out{i})
 end

Hi Iain,

So sorry to add this comment so late. I was wondering if you could help. your suggestion has been throwing up errors for me. I thought a function should be defined as [out] = function (in) Also what if I want the function to do two things, should that then be [out,out2] = function(in,in2) also it keep telling me that load should be loading up a string. It doesn't seem to be able to recognize that in already has strings. Any ideas?

many thanks in advance

For something like that you would likely be better off writing functions.

But yes, you can write scripts. scripts run in the context of the current workspace.

How do you deal with import? Neither another function nor another script can import packages for a function.

Hi guys

Thanks so much for the help I also wanted to check something say for example I wanted to plot a graph of y = sin(x) for example and save it to a particular folder ofor each loop how would I go about this?

Would something like this work?

baseFileName = sprintf(out2,k);
% Specify some particular, specific folder:
fullFileName = fullfile('D:\myPlots', baseFileName);  
figure(1); % Activate the figure again.
export_fig(fullFileName); % Using export_fig instead of saveas.
