How can I load .mat files?

Hello, I have 3 .mat files and I want to measure feature importance. Following code works fine with .txt files but I am getting an error message with .mat files. I want to load all .mat files one by one and seperate predictors (X) and response variable (Y, the last column) for "fscchi2" function but I can't. How can I fix it?
matFiles = dir('Datasets/*.mat');
nFiles = length(matFiles);
for i = 1:nFiles
DataSet = load(matFiles(i).name);
X = DataSet(:,1:end-1);
Y = DataSet(:,end);
[~,Scores] = fscchi2(X,Y);
end

"I couldn't find a way to seperate response column like I did with the .txt files"
The columns are in the structure field, not the structure itself. So you just need to access its field/s. If the fieldnames change (i.e. the data is very badly designed by someone who wants to make your life harder) then you can use dynamic fieldnames:
Rik showed this below.
Avoid loading directly into the workspace (as you show) unless you want to include latent bugs in your code.
Much simpler and more robust code would result if the data had been better designed (i.e. the same variable/field name).

Or:
matfilenames={'Datasets/a.mat','Datasets/b.mat','Datasets/c.mat'};
for k = 1:3
S=load(matfilename{k});
fields=fieldnames(S);
data=s.(fields{1});
X = data(:,1:end-1);
Y = data(:,end);
[~,nCols] = size(X);
[Idx,Scores] = fscchi2(X,Y);
...
end
Next time, try to give the variables in your mat files the same name, so you can load to a struct array.

I provided something substantially similar to that, however never received any feedback on what did or didn’t work, why it didn’t work, or anything else. I deleted my answer when it became obvious that my efforts were apparently futile.
