How to use an array (saved as a mat file) in my C program?

Hey there, I am trying to figure how to use a apecific array from my mat file. Unfortunately, I am not able to find the header file mat.h in the internet to check if my code it is actually working.

My mat file is called ma.mat and has only array called X(1:1024)

The following is my C-code:

#include "mat.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>


int main () {
X = mxArray *matGetVariable(ma *mfp, X *name);

return(0);
}

The following documentation links might help you to know more about the usage of MAT files in C/C++ programs.
