MKDIR Make Directory
Section: Operating System Functions
Usage
Creates a directory. The general syntax for its use ismkdir('dirname')
which creates the directory dirname
if it does not exist. The argument
dirname
can be either a relative path or an absolute path. For compatibility
with MATLAB, the following syntax is also allowed
mkdir('parentdir','dirname')
which attempts to create a directory dirname
in the directory given by parentdir
.
However, this simply calls mkdir([parentdir dirsep dirname])
, and if this is not
the required behavior, please file an enhancement request to have it changed. Note that
mkdir
returns a logical 1
if the call succeeded, and a logical 0
if not.
