error in processing multiple images in a loop code

hello,
a reknowned responder (walter robinson) suggested the following code to process multiple images and count blobs and then sum them together:
dinfo = dir('.jpg');
filenames = {dinfo.name};
numfiles = length(filenames);
count = zeros(numfiles, 1);
for K = 1 : numfiles
MyRGBImage = filenames{K};
imageData = imread(MyRGBImage);
bw = im2bw(imageData);
bw = bwareafilt(bw, [10 inf]);
[~, numcircles] = bwlabel(bw);
circle_count(K) = numcircles;
end
[~, filename, ~] = fileinfo(filenames);
info_table = table(filename, circle_count);
finalcount = sum(circle_count);
disp(info_table)
But i keep getting an error:
Unrecognized function or variable 'fileinfo'.
Error in loopcount (line 13)
[~, filename, ~] = fileinfo(filenames);
I changed it to filepart or imfinfo but then I got:
Error using imfinfo
Too many output arguments.
Error in loopcount (line 13)
[~, filename, ~] = imfinfo(filenames);
so I changed it to fileparts and I got:
Error using table
All table variables must have the same number of rows.
Error in loopcount (line 14)
info_table = table(filename, circle_count);
Can someone please help me figure out what is going on here?
Thank you!!

Please use the tools for formatting text and code differently. Thanks.
Hey Walter!!
Thanks that helped but after I uploaded my two test images (just to try it out), I got the following:
filename circle_count
___________ ____________
{1×29 cell} 1×29 double
It should say the number of blobs in each cell as a sum but it seems to put out the structure of the array instead?
Thanks!!

Try this. It works fine:
directoryInfo = dir('*.jpg');
allFileNames = {directoryInfo.name};
numfiles = length(allFileNames)
circle_count = zeros(numfiles, 1);
for k = 1 : numfiles
fprintf('Processing file #%d of %d : "%s".\n', k, numfiles, allFileNames{k});
MyRGBImage = allFileNames{k};
imageData = imread(MyRGBImage);
bw = im2bw(imageData); % Binarize the image.
bw = bwareafilt(bw, [10 inf]); % Extract only blobs 10 pixels and larger.
% Count the number of blobs.
[~, numCircles] = bwlabel(bw);
% Save the number of blobs.
circle_count(k) = numCircles;
end
% Stuff arrays into a table variable.
info_table = table(allFileNames(:), circle_count, 'VariableNames', {'FileName', 'CircleCount'});
finalcount = sum(circle_count)
disp(info_table)

Thank you Image Analyst!!
I think that I am missing something critical in this line:
directoryInfo = dir('*.jpg ');
allFileNames = {directoryInfo.name};
numfiles = length(allFileNames)
circle_count = zeros(numfiles, 1);
the code's product output is:
numfiles =
0
finalcount =
0
(this happens even once I change *.jpg to test1.jpg)
the idea would be that once I put in one name, test1 for ex, the code would automatically process the other images that are in chronological order eg. test 2, test3, test4 etc.
I suppose that I would use a for loop for k = 1 : 2 (for two images) but how could i incorporate that into the directoryinfo snippet part of the code? I don't want to change it too drastically.
Yeah, because test1.jpg does not exist in your current folder. Why would you change it to a single file when you wanted to do all the files? Put it back to *.jpg or *.jp* if you have both .jpg and .jpeg files.
Try this if you want sequential:
numFiles = 2;
circle_count = zeros(numfiles, 1);
for k = 1 : numfiles
thisFileName = sprintf('Test%d.jpg', k);
if isfile(thisFileName)
fprintf('Processing file #%d of %d : "%s".\n', k, numfiles, thisFileName);
imageData = imread(thisFileName);
bw = im2bw(imageData); % Binarize the image.
bw = bwareafilt(bw, [10 inf]); % Extract only blobs 10 pixels and larger.
% Count the number of blobs.
[~, numCircles] = bwlabel(bw);
% Save the number of blobs.
circle_count(k) = numCircles;
else
warningMessage = sprintf('File not found:\n%s', thisFileName);
fprintf('%s\n', warningMessage);
uiwait(warndlg(warningMessage));
end
end
% Stuff arrays into a table variable.
info_table = table(allFileNames(:), circle_count, 'VariableNames', {'FileName', 'CircleCount'});
finalcount = sum(circle_count)
disp(info_table)
Hallejuah!
It works!!! Thank you Image Analyst!

I assume this was meant:
[~, filename, ~] = fileparts(filenames);
% ^^^^^ instead of fileinfo

yes, so i changed it to:
dinfo = dir('.jpg');
filenames = {dinfo.name};
numfiles = length(filenames);
count = zeros(numfiles, 1);
for K = 1 : numfiles
MyRGBImage = filenames{K};
imageData = imread(MyRGBImage);
bw = im2bw(imageData);
bw = bwareafilt(bw, [10 inf]);
[~, numcircles] = bwlabel(bw);
circle_count(K) = numcircles;
end
[~, filename, ~] = fileparts(filenames);
info_table = table(filename, circle_count);
finalcount = sum(circle_count);
disp(info_table)
I still get an error
