Unexpected MATLAB operator when using fully qualified path name

Question

0 个投票

I'd like to specify a fully qualified path name as input to Matlab on Linux, but it doesn't seem to accept it. The file is

% cat hw.m

msg='hello, world'

From the Matlab prompt, anything other than the basename causes an error. Is there a way to make this work?

>> /home/matlab/hw

 /home/matlab/hw
 |
Error: Unexpected MATLAB operator.

>> ~/matlab/hw

 ~/matlab/hw
  |
Error: Unexpected MATLAB operator.

>> ./hw

 ./hw
 |
Error: Unexpected MATLAB operator.

>> hw

msg =

hello, world

You have forgotten the quotes

'/home/matlab/hw'

Thanks, that works from the Matlab prompt. It looks like I have to escape it from the command line:

% matlab -nodisplay -nosplash -r \'/home/matlab/hw\'
