changing from wavread to audioread

My colleague has written a program on an older version of Matlab which involves reading in .wav file. In the older version, this would have been handled with wavread, but in R2015b it needs to be handled with audioread. I think I've mostly sorted the changes needed, but one is catching me up.

Basically, what is the audioread equivalent to:

siz = wavread(filename, 'size'

You can use audioinfo and extract TotalSamples and NumChannels .

But typically you just read the entire file and take size() of the data afterwards. Not always, but that is the most common approach.
