Delete files with specific names

67 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello
I have a directory with files from the same type with names like:
2016_03_24_09 -0002-0001-00058.dcm
2016_03_24_09 -0002-0001-00059.dcm
2016_03_24_09 -0002-0001-00060.dcm
etc.
Based on the last 5 figures (e.g.,*00060.dcm),
I need to delete every file that ends with a number greater than 276.
Is there a way to do it in a loop?
Thanks,
Tali

You need
for n = 1: size(files, 1)
and, since using ls gives you a character array instead of a cell array, you'll need
delete(strtrim(files(n,:)));
to trim off the extra whitespace. If you use dir() instead of ls(), you don't need to use strtrim().

You can get the filenames using
d = dir;
filenames = {d.name};
Loop through the filenames
for i = 1:numel(filenames)
fn = filenames{i};
[num, cnt] = sscanf(fn(find(fn == '-', 1, 'last')+1:end-4), '%d');
if cnt == 1 && num > 276
disp(fn)
end
end
This just displays the files to be deleted. If everything is alright, replace
disp(fn)
with
delete fn

This code will not work since
delete fn
will try to delete a file with the name "fn". So the result will be:
Warning: File 'fn' not found.
The right way to do it can be found here.
Or in this example:
delete(fn);
