Another option is to choose some meaningfull variable name, and use that
inside your script to perform some action. Better yet, set this variable as
a cell array, and iterate on the elements.

For instance:

script1:
name={'data1.csv', 'data2.csv'}

script2:
for ii = (1:length(name))
 somevar = load(name{ii});
 do_some_proc
end

You have to choose carefully the way you pass data between scripts,
variables are now all global and may be overwrittent anywhere.
