how to load all mat files in the filenumber wise sequentially ?

The mat file names on my local drive ends with the increasing number (0-16) range as shown in pictute below (InFolder.png), while on MATLAB, it gets loaded in the other sequence (0,1,10,11-15,2,3-9) (As shown in figure (InMATLAB.png)). Is it possible to load all mat files in order from (0-16)?

The file has been conventionally loaded using :

"d = dir('*.mat');"

Unzip it onto your MATLAB search path or current directory. Then use it like this:

S = dir('*.mat');
S = nartsortfiles(S);
..etc

Another solution is to use sufficient leading zeros so that the OS/SORT returns the filenames in the required order.
