load function sometimes alters structure name in the Workspace

4 次查看(过去 30 天)
I am encountering a weird phenomena where using the load('filename') function to load a structure, alters the structure name in the workspace. This does not occur everytime, but I observed it on multiple occasions:
Example:
close all
clear variables
load('TM24_w')
results in a structure in my workspace named: "TM242_w"
It does load in the correct structure with the correct fields and values but the workspace name is wrong.
Has anyone ever encountered this and is there a solution?

Again it's the name of the structure that changed. The variables inside the structure are fine.

Very unusual. Can you please upload the .mat file by clicking the paperclip button.
What OS are you using?

When you load a mat file without output on the load command, the variable names will be the same as the names inside the mat and not what the file name happens to be.

"What do you mean by the "names inside the mat"?"
.mat files store one or more variables (or fields of a structure). Variables have names.
The name of the file is irrelevant.
Note that the MATLAB documentation recommends loading into an output variable.
