How to store values from a dataset into an array in matlab

Question

I have a dataset file called "data.mat", how can I store all the values in that into an array which I wanna name y or f(x) ?

The only thing I know is how to load it for example like this:

load('data.mat');

So what is the problem if you load the file and rename the variables, merge them or whatever you want to do? Alos f(x) is not a valid variable names, as brackets are not allowed. — mpaskov

so then I wanna nam it fx, but you dont get my point I'm not a Matlab professional, I want to store those values into an array which I call fx but I am not sure what is the simpliest way to do that? — Nali

after loading you can use the call the function whos and it will list all variable that are in you have. Say they are called a and b. Then you can simply do fx = a, if you want to store the values of a in a variable named fx. — mpaskov

This will load all the values in the MAT file into the struct s, which I think is the behavior you want:

s = load('data.mat');
