Parsing Text in Matlab

gobby

Hey all,

I am doing a project at the moment and I need to be able to change a matlab string that contains a path and filename into a string that contains the same path and the same filename only with a different extension.

Can someone tell me some good matlab functions for parsing text like this?

Cheers,
Gob.

Sorry I've never used matlab before. Have you tried looking at the API documentation?

Have just found a couple of things in a book. Thing is that Im using a college edition of matlab and the help files have not been installed. Ive tried using the mathworks website but I find it difficult to use.

Theres a few people around me using matlab a lot so Ive been able to get some small bits of infor here and there and Im trying a few different things out right now. (more suggestions are still welcome though!)

Thanks all the same.
