How can I get gif images from the 300 by 300 raw pixels .txt files?

Hi I am trying to make a gif files from the amount of 500 text files. text files are saved like matrices such as

1.023000000000000000e+03 9.000000000000000000e+00 1.300000000000000000e+01
9.420000000000000000e+02 9.270000000000000000e+02 8.600000000000000000e+01
7.620000000000000000e+02 7.680000000000000000e+02 7.590000000000000000e+02

and I want to make only one gif files included 500 txt files.

Also, I want to make scale bar and automatic range (find minimum and maximum value and set that the minimum and maximum during the play.

Please start at opening the text files!

files = dir('*.txt') ;   % get all text files in the folder 
N = length(files) ;     % total number of files 
% gif starts 
h = figure;
axis tight manual % this ensures that getframe() returns a consistent size
filename = 'test.gif';
for i = 1:N   % loop for each file 
    % import the file 
    data = importdata(files(i).name) ;
    surf(data) ;
    colorbar
    drawnow
    % Capture the plot as an image
    frame = getframe(h);
    im = frame2im(frame);
    [imind,cm] = rgb2ind(im,256);
    % Write to the GIF File
    if n == 1
        imwrite(imind,cm,filename,'gif', 'Loopcount',inf);
    else
        imwrite(imind,cm,filename,'gif','WriteMode','append');
    end
end

This is not working.... can you explain this briefly? because this is my first time to learn Matlab...

I gave comments at each line.....tell me what problem you face and why this code is not working?

[Jungbae Yoon]

First of all, I want to set the path for each try because I will save this kinds of data many times in the future

Secondly, I don't want to get 3D image, I need 2D images with contrast depending on the pixel values. Also, I want to get video(like gif)

[KSSV]

files = dir('*.txt') ;

The above liens reads all test files in the present folder......you need to read about that.
