Hi Jordi,
I use gmail to respond. Do you know how can i do that? I tried to change but i couldn't find how to do that.
I already resolved my problem. The problem was in the path.
Thanks, Monica

I have no idea what could be happening, but, to quote a famous
fictional detective, "data, data, data! I cannot make bricks without
clay!"

these commands work instead? Execute them from Octave.

   run Script_regularization.m
   source Script_regularization.m
