Extreact Information from a String

Hello, I do have the following Code
d = dir('/home/user/Documents/Data*.inp');
names = {d.name}
which gives me an Array of Strings.
names(1) is like = "Data_c11_t3.322111_id01111_Units.inp"
names(2) is like = "Data_c101_t4.32111_id01112_Units.inp"
etc.
Now I want to extract the time, which is in the name after "t". How can I extract the time in such a format?
Any suggestions?

regexp would be the best idea, I've no big experiences with it, I'll give it a shot anyway,
names = {'Data_c11_t3.322111_id01111_Units.inp';'Data_c101_t4.32111_id01112_Units.inp'};
t = regexp(names,'[0-9]+\.+[0-9*]+','match')

To each their own opinion of course. Regular expressions are designed to extract specific patterns in strings, which, in my opinion is exactly the problem at hand.

Use a sscanf to read the number between the _t and _id, ignoring the varying number after the _c. Use cellfun to apply this to all cells:
names = {'Data_c11_t3.322111_id01111_Units.inp' ; 'Data_c101_t4.32111_id01112_Units.inp'} ;
T = cellfun(@(N) sscanf(N,'Data_c%*d_t%f_id'), names) % "%*d" = the * means skip

@Jos, this is a great answer
How would I adapt the sscanf formatSpec to extract 130 as a numeric value from this string? I have attached the string array variable that this is example string is taken from.
'Position: (19.59862|1.8|53.84677)Rotation: (0 | 130 | 0)'
Many thanks!

Thanks :-) Something along these lines should work for your input
str = 'Position: (19.59862|1.8|53.84677)Rotation: (0 | 130 | 0)'
A = sscanf(str, 'Position: (%*f|%*f|%*f)Rotation: (%*d | %d | %*d)')

str = 'Data_c11_t3.322111_id01111_Units.inp' ;
idx = strfind(str,'_') ;
str2num(str(idx(2)+2:idx(3)-1))
Using regexp:
str = 'Data_c11_t3.322111_id01111_Units.inp' ;
N = str2num( regexprep( str, {'\D*([\d\.]+\d)[^\d]*', '[^\d\.]*'}, {'$1 ', ' '} ) ) ;
t = N(2)
