str2double('00010001') or str2num('00010001') gives output as 10001 by ignoring the MSB '000' bits how to retain them?

Hi, I have some filenames which start with '0**' something like that (00010001,00010002,...00010010 etc), When I use str2double on that filename string str2double('00010001') it outputs 10001 without considering the MSB bits. Is there anyway I can get the filename as '00010001'?
Thanks, Gopi

I think you want to generate a list of file names with serial number whose prefix is '0001'. If so, the following code will help. This generates the file name list from '00010001' with length of N.
N = 10;
list = strcat(repmat('0001',N,1),num2str((1:N)','%04d'));
