I'm working with the following file addresses format:
/A/B/C/D/foo/bar
I want to come up with a regular expression in Matlab that will return the last word in the adress. In this case I want the word "bar". What would be the regular expression?

If you're just trying to get the file name from the full file path, you can use fileparts rather than a regex:
>> [path,name,ext] = fileparts('/A/B/C/D/foo/bar')
path = /A/B/C/D/foo
name = bar
ext =
If bar has an extension, then it would be:
>> [path,name,ext] = fileparts('/A/B/C/D/foo/bar.txt')
path = /A/B/C/D/foo
name = bar
ext = .txt
>> nameext = [name ext]
nameext = bar.txt
