Directions for using GUIs

For demo purposes, store the files from the present directory into the directory from which you intend to run Matlab. There are five main GUIs at present, with others to be added later. They are named:

Taylor_GUI
Rootfinding
Uniform_Interpolation
Uniform_vs_Chebyshev_Interp
Integrate

These must be run from within Matlab. To run one of them, simply type the name as given above.

The first four require two main files, one with a suffix of .m and one with a suffix of .fig; both are needed in running the GUI. The GUI Rootfinding also has three additional GUIs it calls, for the bisection, Newton, and secant methods. The GUI named Integrate uses only a single m-file, although we intend to later rewrite it in the same format as the other GUIs.

When used for course purposes, I have the files stored in a separate systems directory that is checked by Matlab. The students do not need to have the files in their own directory in order to run the GUIs.
