filename = 'AppropriateName.txt';
S = fileread(filename);
L = regexp(S, '\r?\n', 'split');
data = cellfun(@(s) str2double(regexp(s, ',', 'split')), L, 'uniform', 0);
The result will be a cell array with one entry per line, with each entry being the numeric data from the corresponding line.

data = readtable('yourfile.txt', 'Delimiter', ',',...
'HeaderLines', 0, 'ReadVariableNames',false, 'Format', '%d');
