Finding filename with only part of the name

Hello,

I want to import files that have the same end. How can I do it ? For example:

for i=1:10
Filenames(i) = importFile('*_modif.csv');
end

where all the end of file are composed of '_modif.csv'. I use the * but it didn't work. Could you help me please ? Thank you very much

You can use dir to search for files/folders, and it supports wildcard searches:

S = dir('*_modif.csv');
N = {S.name};
for k = 1:numel(N);
    N{k}
end
