importing multiple images matlab

Question

I have a set of 100 jpg images named consecutively and I want to add them up to get a single image. I have seen the answer from here, but it does not run with me, what happened?

Answer 1

Backslash is a special character for sprintf() and needs to be escaped. Either use "\\" instead of "\" or try constructing your file paths another way. fullfile() is a good way to do it, so you only have to use sprintf for the file name part. Also see help sprintf.
