[madhan ravi]

 name_save = compose('name%d', 1:numel(l)) ; % before loop
 name_save{k} ... inside loop

[madhan ravi]

 name_save = cell(numel(l), 1); % before loop
 name_save{k} = name; % inside loop

Perfekt, thanks!

And how can I save just a part of name:

from

003_m1_30_90_ramp_20200611_200632

just

003

?

part_name = strsplit(name_save,'_'); %is not valid for for cells 

[madhan ravi]

part_name = regexp(name_save{k},'\d*(?=\_)','match','once')
