No need to necessarily create new file or hold all in memmory.
Just read each in turn and either accumulate sum and number if it is global mean wanted or compute the mean of each file and save in turn.
It's unclear what is the actual result wanted -- 165 means or just one?
What should be done if the text files do not all have the same number of columns ?
I want to save the mean of each column from a single text file into a matlab format. I can copy and paste but it will take more time to do so. Thanks!

Step 1. Data import from your txt file, e.g.: uiimport()
Step 2. Save imported data
Step 3. Compute the mean of the imported data using mean()
Step 4. Analyze and Report the results.
Good luck.
