Using Matlab to create a LaTex document (for image import)

In order to import multiple figures in LaTex from one folder I have found following code:

fileID = fopen('./incl_img_latex.txt', 'w');


files = dir('path');
for file = files'
    str = file.name;
    fprintf(fileID, '\\begin{figure}[htb!]\n\\centering\n\\setlength{\\fboxsep}{1pt}\n\\setlength{\\fboxrule}{1pt}\n\\fbox{\\includegraphics[width = 0.95\\textwidth]{%s}}\n\\caption{}\\end{figure}\n \n', str);
end

fclose(fileID);

This will create for each file some LaTeX code:

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0252.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0253.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0254.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0255.jpg}}

\end{figure}

Now here comes the tricky thing that I want to implement: For each second file the Latex code should vary:

fprintf(fileID, '\\begin{figure}[htb!]\n\\centering\n\\setlength{\\fboxsep}{1pt}\n\\setlength{\\fboxrule}{1pt}\n\\fbox{\\includegraphics[width = 0.95\\textwidth]{%s}}\n\\caption{}\\end{figure}\n \\clearpage \n \n', str);

So something like that is received:

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0252.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0253.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\clearpage %this Line is new

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0254.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\begin{figure}[htb!]

\centering

\setlength{\fboxsep}{1pt}

\setlength{\fboxrule}{1pt}

\fbox{\includegraphics[width = 0.95\textwidth]{IMG_0255.jpg}}

\end{figure}

\clearpage %this Line is new

How do I achieve this?

fileID = fopen('./incl_img_latex.txt', 'w');


files = dir('path');
files([files.isfolder]) = [];   %remove . and .. and any directories
for fileidx = 1 : numel(files)
    file = files(fileidx);
    str = file.name;
    fprintf(fileID, '\\begin{figure}[htb!]\n\\centering\n\\setlength{\\fboxsep}{1pt}\n\\setlength{\\fboxrule}{1pt}\n\\fbox{\\includegraphics[width = 0.95\\textwidth]{%s}}\n\\caption{}\\end{figure}\n \n', str);
    if mod(fileidx,2) == 0
        fprintf(fileID, '\\clearpage\n');
    end
end

fclose(fileID);
