Merge multiple .csv files of different dimensions into one data

Hi all: Say I have about 200 .csv files of different dimensions (e.g 6662*2 double and 6634*2 double) and I would like to merge them into one dataset. I have a code that can merge multiple .csv files of same dimensions but not of varying dimensions like one described above. Is there a code that can help me do that? Thank you.

Do they all share the same second dimension? If so you should just be able to concatenate them.

data = [];
for i=1:numberoffiles
    data = [data,csvread(file(i))];
end

You might have to finesse things a little bit to make sure the right dimensions are being joined, but that's the general idea.

Assuming all the files have the same number of columns (otherwise you need to explain what to do with the files with less columns):

filepath = 'C:\somewhere';
filelist = {'file.csv', 'file2.csv', ..., 'filen.csv'};  %obtained any which way you want. Maybe with dir

filecontents = cell(numel(filelist), 1);
for fileidx = 1:numel(filelist);
   filecontents{fileidx} = csvread(fullfile(filepath, filelist{fileidx}));  %or use dlmread
end
concatenatedcontent = vertcat(filecontents{:});
csvwrite('c:\somewhere\somefile.csv', concatenatedcontent);

the csv files have the same number of columns but have different dimensions.
