Importing .mat files on a mac

Currently i have a large file from SignalCalc that has 54 sub trials in it. For each trial subfolder under the main lab folder there is a matlab folder from which i want to extract the .mat file and a specific variable from that file. As best as a can show in a folder path would be (main folder/ sub folders for the trial/ matlab/ .mat file)

Here is the code im currently trying to use to extract it but unsure why its not working. I get an error regarding cd([dir '/MATLAB/']) that says name is non existant or not a directory.

The main file (Group A - Lab 3) is in my downloads file. THis is the specific error message.

Error using cd

Cannot CD to /Users/BradensMac/Downloads/Group A - Lab 3/Run00001/MATLAB/ (Name is nonexistent or

not a directory).

Error in thirdlab (line 6)

dir = [Labdir '/Run000' Num1]; cd([dir '/MATLAB/'])

done = 0;

Labdir = '/Users/BradensMac/Downloads/Group A - Lab 3';

while done == 0

Num1 = input('Input the run ID of less damped case in single quotes (i.e. ''01'')');

dir = [Labdir '/Run000' Num1];

cd([dir '/MATLAB/'])

load('DPsv00001.mat', 'X1')

done = input('Input 0 to keep uploading, or 1 to finish');

end

Do you have a /Users/BradensMac/Downloads/Group A - Lab 3/Run00001/MATLAB/ directory? What happens if you type

cd /Users/BradensMac/Downloads/Group A - Lab 3/Run00001/MATLAB/

in Mac terminal?

I actually figured it out, I had to write a script in automated to properly copy the folder path from the folder to Matlab. It's a service automation that is easy to set up.
