How to recursively go through all directories and sub directories and process files?
So I have a single directory with sub directories and sub directories and then files (its a mess). I want to go to each folder at end ( I dont care about directories) and process the files in it (be it .txt .jpg etc). I kinda got a way to list all folders using the dirwalk function from here, – https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/32036-dirwalk-walk-the-directory-tree , but I don’t know two things. How to figure out if a path (the function outputs all possible paths, thats what i understood) is not directory with sub directories, but a directory with images or text files, so I can process them. After choosing a path, I need to figure out how to loop through files. Or is there an easier way I’m missing? any advice would be appreciated!
Example of direc structure:
Main Directory>
>> Dir 1
>> fold1
>>txt files
>>fold2
>>files
>>Dir 2
