Loading in a for loop

im in a situation on which i have to load a lot of files (about 400) and was wondering if there were a smart way to do it.

I was thinking that a for loop was the best way to do it, but the for loop does not recognise the 'i' as the variable.

for i=1:400
    run_i='C:\Users\unknown\run_i'
end

is there a simple way to solve this?

You can use 'int2str'

for i=1:400
    run_i=['C:\Users\unknown\run_',int2str(i)];
end
%or
for i=1:400
    run_i=strcat('C:\Users\unknown\run_',num2str(i));
end

Or use the recommended and more versatile sprintf.
