Running matlab script from within bash script

Hi guys,

I'm new to scripting and I'm wondering if I can run a matlab script from within a bash script.

Basically, at the minute I have a bash script which creates a file "bottfile.xyz"

I then import "bottfile.xyz" into matlab using importdata('bottfile.xyz'). Then I just run the matlab script and away it goes.

So is there a way for me to just run my bashscript, and get it to run the matlab script also?

Thanks a lot,
J
