Can one have a function that opens and manipulates more than one file with name containing an array

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
If in a script named Overall I have :
angle = input('Which angles (degree) are you targeting: ')
>> [8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1]
followed by calling function:
Tablefliptrial(angle) %line 5
and then a create a separate .m file containing the function
function [desiredOutput] = tablefliptrial(angle)
fileID = fopen('distance',angle,'zenith.plt'); %open file %line 2
%do a bunch of operations towards desired output
desiredOutput = [] %huge matrix
end
Am I allowed to place the value of each angle so that the function reads each file format (i.e. distance1zenith, distance2zenith...) or do I need a different approach? Error given:
Error using fopen
Invalid permission.
Error in Tablefliptrial (line 2)
fileID = fopen('distance',angle,'zenith.plt'); %open file
Error in Overall (line 5)
Tablefliptrial(angle)

fopen() can only accept two inputs. The first input is filename and second is the permission. What you are doing, is to give 3 inputs to fopen(). Therefore fopen() is not working. Also each call to fopen() can only open 1 file so you will need to for loop. You need to do it like this
function [desiredOutput] = tablefliptrial(angle)
for i=angles
fileID = fopen(['distance',num2str(i),'zenith.plt']); %open file %line 2
%do a bunch of operations towards desired output
desiredOutput = [] %huge matrix
end
end
note that adding [] have converted the three inputs into one char array of the filename. You can specify the second input to fopen() as permission with which you want to open the file.

Always fclose every file that you fopen in the loop!
It is an very bad practice to leave files open like that: continually opening files can eventually cause MATLAB to crash. The MATLAB documentation specifically advises "When you finish processing the file, close it with fclose(fid).".
Always fclose after processing the files!

Use sprintf or num2str to construct the file name.

So I changed Overall.m to be
angle = input('Which angles (degree) are you targeting: ');
anginput = num2str(angle);
Tablefliptrial(anginput);
but I am still received with invalid permission
