errors when running tutorial

[E]

Hello,

I was working my way through the Guardd tutorial when I ran into errors from Matlab.  Is it possible that the versions of Matlab that I have are not compatible? (I have the R2012b release of Matlab and Optimization toolbox v6.2.1.) I was just at the start of the "Fit RD data" section with Ile26:

• Fit RD

1. Contains 6 panels for sequential fitting tasks
2. (1a) Procedure: Individual
3. (1b) Task: Simulate
4. (2) INITIAL CONDITIONS: (Leave default)
1. Note: Often, one may change starting P_A, k_ex, Δω_H, and Δω_X
5. Click Go! (1-5 sec)

After clicking go, this was the output from Matlab:

Do you have any suggestions for me?

Thanks for the assistance!

Hi Emma,

Sorry for my delay. I sent this email a while ago but recently thought it may not have gone through. You'll need the curve fitting toolbox too.

http://www.mathworks.com/help/curvefit/fitoptions.html

In total you'll need the following software:

MATLAB, Optimization Toolbox, Curve Fitting Toolbox, Statistics Toolbox

I hope that helps.

Regards,
