I am trying to read in data and the measurement timestamps do not include the dates. The filenames include the date/time when the file was started. How can save the date from the filename to use it in the timestamps for each measurement?
I was previously doing this:
filepath = 'HR3_181920/PH/';
filelist = dir(strcat(filepath,'*.txt'));
file_timestamps =cell2mat({filelist.datenum});
But this doesn't work because it is taking the date from the structure for the datenum value which I think is actually the time when the file ends (not the beginning). I have attached a file of the resulting structure which includes the names of the files I am trying to work with.
These are the 'file_timestamps' that I currently get when I run those line. Notice they match the date column but not the information in the name of the file.
