Import multiple .txt files

Hi,
I have some text files that I want to import all at once. I am using the following code to try to import them.
files = dir(fullfile(roothpath, '*.txt'));
file_paths = fullfile({files.folder}, {files.name});
for i = 1 : numel(file_paths)
data = textread(file_paths{i}, '');
end
However, the text files have headers and I am having trouble removing them. So my question is what can I do to import them with commands to remove the header and import all the files.
Thanks.

Use "headerlines" parameter to ignore the header lines:
data = textread(file_paths{i}, format, 'headerlines', headlineNum);

Hi Chunru,
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried the command line and its saying "too many output arguments". I am using Matlab 2018a if that matters at all.
Post a small fraction of data file.
