Could someone please show me how to add time data?

I have eleven files that each have a column with time data. They all start at zero seconds, but are not all exactly the same in length. I would like to put these files into one large file with the time in sequence starting with zero and becoming larger with each file, not starting back at zero after each file. What is an efficient way of doing this? I have tried a few things but nothing will work for files with irregular lengths. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How can I fix my code knowing that there is a slight difference with the time-step? How can I read in the last time value for each file to put them all together?

That dT is fixed (not 0.002, but constant) within machine roundoff. If that's so for each file, then I'd revert to the previous technique just using the actual difference instead of the approximate 0.002; how can it possibly matter if you're concatenating files that didn't come sequentially in the first place?

Here is one way of doing it. I use four copies of you example file for this test.
tic
folderspec = 'h:\m\cssm';
glob = 'Example_DROID*.mat';
X = cssm( folderspec, glob );
toc
dX = diff(X(:,1));
disp( [ max(dX), min(dX)] )
outputs
Elapsed time is 0.109893 seconds.
0.001953000000000 0.001952999999997
>>
where
function X = cssm( folderspec, glob )
sad = dir( fullfile( folderspec, glob ) );
len = length( sad );
cac = cell( 1, len );
dt = 0.001953; % magic number
dX1 = 0;
for jj = 1 : len
S = load( fullfile( folderspec, sad(jj).name ) );
S.X(:,1) = S.X(:,1) + dX1;
cac{jj} = S.X;
dX1 = S.X( end, 1 ) + dt;
end
X = cat( 1, cac{:} );
end

  • folderspec is a variable name, which I use for the full name of a directory path. In Matlab the name, path, is taken.
  • glob is a variable name, which is often used for filenames with wildcard characters. See glob (programming)

"to get a consistent dt of the entire group of files" &nbsp Why do you want that?
"if the dt changes a good bit from file to file?" &nbsp If so, it's for some reason.
