Creating file names for save command

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
I have the following code:
file_dir = 'C:\Users\mydir';
datestamp=string(datetime('now','TimeZone','local','Format','yyyyMMdd_HHmmss'));
file_name=strcat(file_dir,'sps_',datestamp,'.mat');
save(file_name);
which returns the following error:
Error using save
Argument must contain a character vector.
Not sure how to fix this?

Also tried this modification with out success. Same error although it does appear to generate a character vector..
file_name=sscanf(strcat(file_dir,'sps_',datestamp,'.mat'),'%s');

Same error:
save('temp.mat', data);
Error using save
Must be a string scalar or character vector.

You have to put some data in the file....
file_dir = pwd;
datestamp=string(datetime('now','TimeZone','local','Format','yyyyMMdd_HHmmss'));
file_name=strcat(file_dir,filesep,'sps_',datestamp,'.mat');
data = rand(10,10) ;
save(file_name,'data');

How about replacing:
file_name=strcat(file_dir,filesep,'sps_',datestamp,'.mat');
with
file_name=char(strcat(file_dir,filesep,'sps_',datestamp,'.mat'));

Prefer fullfile to join path and file names.

file_dir = 'C:\Users\mydir';
datestamp=char(datetime('now','TimeZone','local','Format','yyyyMMdd_HHmmss'));
file_name=strcat(file_dir,'sps_',datestamp,'.mat');
>> whos file_name
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes
file_name 1x37 74 char
This works for me.
