In order to open pathdef.m, I used my admin privileges to change permissions so that everyone can read and execute this file.
'''Note 04/05'''
Got Matlab working by changing the privileges above. I had to also give everyone the right to modify pathdef before Matlab accepted it. When opening Matlab, there are a bunch of files that we don't have permission to run because they are in Amir's user folder but they do not seem important to the Entrep code so I am ignoring this for now.
I had issues running the code because the various paths and m folder references in the code do not match our own path variable, so I took an easy route and copied all of the provided files into one big folder called Adjusted Code in the same folder as Original Code. Now, I can actually run the files but they take forever.
I planned on stopping the code at about 30 minutes of runtime, but right then, something mysteriously printed so I decided to let it keep going. Since I don't totally understand what this code is doing, I'll let it run until I come back on Friday and hope I get some output that provides insight into what is going on.
In the meantime, I downloaded Atom and set it up so that I can write julia code in Atom and run it in the terminal. I am reviewing Julia syntax concepts for when I finally start to code.
