Somewhat tangential, does anyone have any material that covers manipulating strings, and dealing with many input files with Matlab?
The existing material looks very good (and thanks for it), but I have one target audience where the biggest challenge is not writing new functions but instead using the existing functions over a large number of subdirectories and files, where the directory and file names are constructed on the fly as part of a loop. Just curious. I'm expecting to make some supplemental material, but if someone's beat me to it.... -- bennet On Tue, Feb 16, 2016 at 6:18 PM, Greg Wilson <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Gerard, > > Thanks very much for the feedback - a pull request with more accurate > timings would be very welcome.
