Best way to store a variable outside of a loop

Hello!

I have a program that runs through a series of images, which are called upon by iterating the number at the end of the file name, ex:

path=('E:\Dropbox\Zeeman data 1\');

for i=[1,5,11];
     filename=([path 'IMG_' num2str(file(1,i)) '.jpg']);
...
end

In this for loop, I am finding the location of the peaks of resultant intensity profiles, using the function

[pks,locs]=findpeaks(a, 'MINPEAKHEIGHT', 10);

The trouble is, that this value is overwritten each time that I go through the loop, and I would like to have these values visible for each iteration, ie file1, file5 and file11, when I exit the loop.

How can I rename the 'locs' parameter for each iteration so that I can have access to it after the routine is done?

Thank you!

Btw, do not shadow the important function "path" by a local variable.

[pks(i), locs(i)] = findpeaks(etc.)
