Package functions

[Leszek Jankowski]

Dear Sir/Madam

 

I have a problem concerning using functions from installed packages. I am writing my Bachelor’s thesis and I really need package statistics. I have installed it without problems (save for a warning concerning shadowing ftest function but I don’t find it relevant). It required more recent io package - I also installed it.

But when I tried to use some functions included in the package, I received a notification that it is undefined. I am not an experienced Octave user - I use it rather occasionally. Could you tell me what can be wrong? Should ‘package functions’ be used in a different way than built‑in functions?

 

In advance much thanks for your advice and time devoted.

 

With kind regards,
