How do i print file names that exist in certain folder in matlab table with out file extension?

Dear all..

i'm using the following code to write file names that exist in folder or sub-folder ... in matlab table.. but its write these files along with thier extension .. such that if file AA is text file.. then its name in table is AA.txt and so on.. how do i avoid extension in my code.. thanks

projectdir = 'D:\test';
d = dir(fullfile(projectdir, '*'));
files = [];
for subdir = d([d.isdir] & ~ismember({d.name},{'.', '..'}))'
   subfiles = dir(fullfile(projectdir, subdir.name, '*.txt'));
   [subfiles.folder] = deal(subdir.name);
   files = [files; subfiles]; 
end
details = struct2table(files);

First place does this code work? I don't think so..you have initialed

dir = D:\test;

YOu have used inbuilt function dir as a variable, this will throw error in second line itself...

Dear KSSV; test is a folder include large number of sub-folders... every sub-folder involve some text files.. i'm able to write their names but perhaps without extension ...

here i'm writing html pages ... but perhaps i can written their names with out extension

Use fileparts to get the filename without the extensions. Something like this, where C is a cell array of those filenames:

 [P,N,E] = cellfun(@fileparts,C,'uni',0)

is there any way to modified my code by this function, thanks

[Stephen23]

Put this after the loop:

[~,N] = cellfun(@fileparts,{files.name},'uni',0);
[files.name_no_ext] = deal(N{:});

Kindly, can you please re-write the above code and attached your code.. i have inserted your two lines after loop and got so many errors, kindly i'm not familiar with matlab may i forget some thing .. thanks

Running this (note that I changed the directory for my test):

projectdir = '.';%'D:\test';
D = dir(fullfile(projectdir, '*'));
files = [];
for subdir = D([D.isdir] & ~ismember({D.name},{'.', '..'}))'
   subfiles = dir(fullfile(projectdir, subdir.name, '*.txt'));
   [subfiles.folder] = deal(subdir.name);
   files = [files; subfiles]; 
end
[~,N] = cellfun(@fileparts,{files.name},'uni',0);
[files.name_no_ext] = deal(N{:});

gives this output:

>> files.name_no_ext
ans = test1
ans = test2
ans = file3
