Hello everyone,
I want to ask a question.
I have a directory of flight data files and I want to delete some files that have less size than, for example 500 kb.
Is there any way to do it in loop?
Thanks

Get the directory files
files = dir('your directory');
Apply loop and delete with your condition
for ii = 1:length(files)
if files(ii).bytes<500000 % 500kb
delete(fullfile(files(ii).folder, files(ii).name)
end
end

You can learn/refer MATLAB fundamentals to apply solution to your problem. MATLAB provides very rich documentation clearly.
