Remove end folder part of string in MATLAB

Question

Say if we have this string

a = 'C:/my_folder/folder/mac/data/';

How can I use regexprep to reduce the string to:

'C:/my_folder/folder/mac/';

Answer 1

Actually, I found a way to do it.

[pathstr] = fileparts(a);
regexprep(pathstr, '(?<=/)[^/]*$', '')

Answer 2

您可以尝试使用此方法在字符串结尾处剪切5个字符     a = a（1：结束-5）
