Only last data in struct? How to load all data in struct?

Hello.

How can you avoid overwriting data in struct? Data struct now only provides data of last file in EMG. Normally there are 6 files of EMG. How can I put all of them in a struct?

Thanks.

%% load EMG data
myFolder = 'E:\**\Assignment_V3\Data'
if ~isfolder(myFolder)
    errormessage = sprintf('Error: The folder does not exist'); 
    myFolder = uigetdir();
    if myFolder == 0 
        return;
    end 
end 

filePattern = fullfile(myFolder, '**/EMG/*.mot'); 
pathway = dir(filePattern); 
for k = 1:length(pathway) 
    EMGfile = pathway(k).name;
    EMGcorrectfile = fullfile(pathway(k).folder, EMGfile);
    fprintf(1, 'Now reading %s\n', EMGcorrectfile); 
   EMGdata = importdata(EMGcorrectfile);
end

Attach 2 different .mot files so we can run your code.

In the meantime, try this untested code:

% Load EMG data
myFolder = 'E:\**\Assignment_V3\Data'
if ~isfolder(myFolder)
    errormessage = sprintf('Error: The folder does not exist'); 
    myFolder = uigetdir();
    if myFolder == 0 
        return;
    end 
end 

filePattern = fullfile(myFolder, '**/EMG/*.mot'); 
pathway = dir(filePattern); 
for k = 1:length(pathway) 
    EMGfile = pathway(k).name;
    EMGcorrectfile = fullfile(pathway(k).folder, EMGfile);
    fprintf(1, 'Now reading %s\n', EMGcorrectfile); 
    EMGdata = importdata(EMGcorrectfile);
    EMGstruct(k).data = EMGdata; % Add a structure to the structure array.
end
