using natsortfiles to import csv files correctly

I have been looking for a way to import many csv files into matlab in the correct order (e.g. csv1, csv2, csv3).
My csv files have a naming structure of c0_1f0_1_0.csv, c0_1f0_1_1.csv etc. Where I want them ordered by the last digit.
I have found the function natsortfiles and have downloaded this from the file exchange and saved it into my working folder, but I am new to this and I am struggling to get it to work in my script from here. Is there anything I am missing or doing wrong?
P = 'E:.....';
S = dir(fullfile(P,'*.txt'));
C = natsortfiles({S.name});
for k = 1:numel(C)
fullfile(P,C{k})
end

"but it says that natsort files does not exist"
All of the required files are in the downloaded zip file (you need both NATSORT and NATSORTFILES).

Taking a guess that you actually want to match the last integer, not just the last digit:
S = natsortfiles(S,'\d+^$'); % alphanumeric sort by filename
Remove the plus if you really just want the last digit.

"...but this does not rearrange the files in the structure"
NATSORTFILES will sort a cell array of filenames, but can also sort the DIR structure directly:
>> S = dir('*.txt');
>> S.name
ans =
'1.txt'
ans =
'10.txt'
ans =
'2.txt'
>> S = natsortfiles(S);
>> S.name
ans =
'1.txt'
ans =
'2.txt'
ans =
'10.txt'
