To delete a file in MATLAB, you can use the built-in delete
function. The syntax of the function is as follows:
main.m17 chars2 lines
where filename
is a string specifying the name of the file to be deleted. For example, to delete a file named data.txt
in the current working directory, you can use the following code:
main.m20 chars2 lines
If the file is not in the current working directory, you need to specify the full or relative path to the file. For example, to delete a file named out.png
in a folder named images
located in the parent directory, you can use the following code:
main.m29 chars2 lines
You can also use the unlink
function, which is equivalent to delete
in MATLAB:
main.m17 chars2 lines
Both functions return a logical value indicating whether the deletion was successful.
