My command window doesn't run the scrip

I have my code in the script window. When i press the Run button it doesn't perform any calculations; instead i get this in command window:

EDU>> IChe10

IChe10 is the name of the file. I have tried everything using different file names, different locations for the file, i reinstalled the app again but no luck. I have OS X Mavericks system i hope this is not the problem.

Thanks

And no message?

Try something like a script named HelloWorld.m consisting of one line

    disp('Hello World')

Click the Run-button. What happens? Should display "Hello World" in the command window.

This worked! But why it's not running my code?

[per isakson]

What do you expect your code to do? Maybe it runs in silence.

[Shakar Bradost]

What do you mean in silence?

I just tested a simple calculation like this:

a = 2
b = 2*a

Didn't work either. Just gave me file number! Is this normal?

[per isakson]

"silence" &nbsp run but not leave any traces

"file number" &nbsp What's that?

Try with

    clear
    clc
    a = 2
    b = 2*a
    whos

Does nothing show in the command window?

[Shakar Bradost]

Yeah it does works this way. I'm confused now this one works as well but mine still no luck

Here's the problem take a look. The workspace is ok but command window not responding!

[per isakson]

I'm convinced that your scripts runs.

How do you know that it does not? What do you expect will happen?

The variables show up in the workspace window.

[Shakar Bradost]

It should perform calculations, it's not just bunch of assigned variables. The this is lower part of the code. It's not that complex either i dont know what's wrong with it!

[per isakson]

I'm still convinced it runs. Exactly, how do you know that it does not?

Run

• clear all
• clc
• YourScript

Inspect the variables in the Workspace window

[Shakar Bradost]

You are right. All calculations are 100% in the Workspace. But how do i make them show in command window? Thanks for the help

[per isakson]

You have to start using the on-line documentaiton.

• Semicolon. .... Used after an expression or statement to suppress printing ...
• disp &nbsp look it up
• fprintf ...
• and more
