Reading a text file and then loop load audio files

I’m a bit confused, i want to read a text file data.txt and then in a loop load some wav-files.

hello

this is a bit vague.. what is the txt file for ? does it contains a list of the wav files names ?

[Mohammed Babangida Ibrahim]

Yes, it contains the names of the wav-files. They go together. Each audio wav-file is accompanied with a text file

hello again

so this script will read the txt file where you have a list of wav file names

then the loop will open the associated wav files and display the data

hope it helps

clc
clearvars

folder = pwd; % current folder
fullfnames = readcell('wav.txt'); % read txt files and store filenames in cells

nFiles=numel(fullfnames);

for iFile = 1:nFiles
    fullfname = char(fullfnames(iFile));
    [signal,fs]=audioread(fullfile(folder,fullfname)); %read in wav
    h = plot(signal); % 
    hold on
    
end

Can you clarify more on the codes, especially were you used fullfile?

[Mathieu NOE]

hello again

fullfile is used to create an absolute complete path to the files

I you work only on the current folder , this may be overkill but it's a safer method to create the path to your wav files

see more info on : help fullfile
