I need help setting my current directory and loading data.

UPDATE: I have solved the issue and no longer need any help! :)

Hello,

I keep trying to set my current directory and load the data like this:

>> cd '/Users/marymadelynnlupton/Desktop/FALL 2020/Probs. & Stats./MatLab Projects/Project 2'
load ECE2523_Project2_Data; %loading newSurveyData to my workspace

But I keep getting this error:

Error using load
Unable to read file 'ECE2523_Project2_Data'. No such file or directory.

I am not sure what's going on. I am positive I saved the data file it in the same directory as my script is saved.

Type

 % if true
    % code
 % end
>> pwd
>> ls *.*

at the command window After setting the folder path where you saved the files

Then locate the file which you want to load into workspace

I still got the same error :( Thank you though! :)

if you are able to view the filename in the specified folder then do the following. Use the function form instead of command form which you are doing

%if true
  % code
%end
load('ECE2523_Project2_Data.mat')
% use function form instead of command form when the filename is a string
