How to save multiple Tables in Workspace with different names

First of all I know i should not be doing this as every answer ist something like "you should use indexing" but i need it.

So, i got hundreds of tables with over 100'000 rows of data in 37 Variables and i have to import them (.csv files) into matlab. I wanted to use a for loop to do this. As the question stated i am not able to get the table saved into my workspace as the table name is not dynamically. Is there any good solution for this? I am not a programmer and i do not have much experience with matlab. What i try is to geht the names for the tables out of "name_cell" and change the "messungen" dynamically with the names i extract from there in some way. I just cannot get this code run. Appreciate every bit of help.

Here is the code i wrote so far:

dinfo = dir('/MATLAB Drive/Nur motor');
names_cell = {dinfo.name}

for i = 3:length(names_cell)
    opts = detectImportOptions(names_cell{i});
    opts.VariableNamesLine = 11;
    opts.DataLines = [12 Inf];
    messungen = readtable(names_cell{i},opts);
    varname = names_cell{i}
    varname = varname(1:end-4)

end

if you really want to assign variable names dynamically you could use the eval() function which takes matlab code as character array and executes it. you can the do something like

for nr=1:3
eval(['tbl' num2str(nr) '=table(rand(1,5))']);
end

"I am not a programmer and i do not have much experience with matlab."

And yet you write that you "need" to use dynamically named variable. And just like every other case where a self-declared beginner writes that they "need" to use dynamically named variables, you did not actually explain why you need to use them.

Question: why do you "need" to use dynamically named variables? What is this magic use-case that prevents you from using simpler and more efficient indexing? Would you care to explain so that we can actually help you to write better code?

Let me rephrase it. I dont exactly need dynamic variables. What i need is to save all the .csv files in seperate tables in my workspace.

"What i need is to save all the .csv files in seperate tables in my workspace."

The obvious, easy, simple solution is to use indexing, just like the documentation shows:

https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/import_export/process-a-sequence-of-files.html

So far you have not provided any reason why that would not work for you. Something like this:

S = dir('/MATLAB Drive/Nur motor'); % even better: filename/extension matching.
S = S(~[S.isdir]); % correct way to ignore folders (your approach is buggy).
for k = 1:numel(S)
    opts = detectImportOptions(S(k).name);
    opts.VariableNamesLine = 11;
    opts.DataLines = [12 Inf];
    S(k).data = readtable(S(k).name,opts);
end

This will be much simpler and more efficient than your approach of saving multiple tables "with different names".

Thank you very much this worked just fine!
