list the subfolders in a folder - Matlab (only subfolders, not files)

Question

I need to list the subfolders inside a folder using Matlab. If I use

nameFolds = dir(pathFolder), 

I get . and ..

Answer 1

The following code snippet just returns the name of sub-folders.

% `rootDir` is given
dirs = dir(rootDir);
% remove `.` and `..`
dirs(1:2) = [];
% select just directories not files
dirs = dirs([obj.dirs.isdir]);
% select name of directories
dirs = {dirs.name};
