Hello, I designed an experiment and I am preparing to write a script for data analysis, I want to select a file to process based on a condition (i.e. a set of characters in the file name). if the filename(001BL100XP0102.HWR) contains P01 then target cordinate is [24.000;13.000];
Any idea of how to write this code. Thanks in advance, I am still a learner

isn't it 10 and 12 ? ah so you want to assign coordinates if the filename contains the substring 'P01'?

example use of the contains() function:
my_string = '001BL100XP0102.HWR'
if contains(my_string,'P01')
targ_coord = [24.000;13.000];
% insert more elseif conditions here
end
The regexp() function may help you here too. Let me know if this is what you needed or if you need further clarification.
