Why Matlab throw an "Unrecognized function or variable 'splitEachLabel" error?

I'm making a custom loop for training a neural network. When I was trying to use the "splitEachLabel" function for splitting the datastore, I got an error:

[imdsTrain, imdsVal] = splitEachLabel(imds,0.8,'randomize');

"Unrecognized function or variable 'splitEachLabel'."

I checked if I have toolboxes that are needed for the project and if this function exists .

'splitEachLabel' not found.

I also run in command line:

run restoredefaultpath; rehash toolboxcache

because that was suggested by Copilot. That didn't help.

My guess is that you need the Audio Toolbox to use the function:

which splitEachLabel
/MATLAB/toolbox/audio/audio/@audioDatastore/splitEachLabel.m  % audioDatastore method
[~, products] = matlab.codetools.requiredFilesAndProducts('splitEachLabel.m')
products = 1×2 struct array with fields:
    Name
    Version
    ProductNumber
    Certain
products.Name
ans = 'MATLAB'
ans = 'Audio Toolbox'

If you are using an ImageDatastore object for the first parameter, you should be able to use the "splitEachLabel" function regardless of Audio Toolbox because it is a built-in object function.

May I ask you if you're unable to run this example also?

imds = imageDatastore(fullfile(matlabroot, 'toolbox', 'matlab', {'demos'}),...
