Warning: Name is nonexistent or not a directory

3 views (last 30 days)
Hi guys,
Every time I run my script I got at the following Warning:
"Warning: Name is nonexistent or not a directory: functions > In path at 110 In addpath at 87 In Fixed_parameter_Normal_Wishart at 13"
In my code-script I am adding the file in the path by using the command: addpath('functions')
What is going wrong here????
Many thanks

5 name is a built-in MATLAB function.
Name ‘functions’ something else.

Look at the documentation on exist(). functions() is a built-in Matlab function, it is not a path. But more importantly, paths should look like:
c:/somewhere or /home/somewhere.
You must pass the path (directory) of where the function you want to use resides, not the name of the function herself to addpath()

I don't know where your folder is located. What's the entire directory look like. If it is Windows, it should be something like
addpath('C:\Program Files\somefolder\functions')
Please remember to accept an answer once it has solved your problem.
