Well my lecturer, as I expected, wasn't interseted in fixing this problem. It
may only take 5 seconds to fix the problem, but there might be 5 weeks of red
tape to do it. So I wasn't surprised.
Basically he wants me to try another method. I have 2 pairs options (total
4), and actually would like to follow 3 of them.
Group A: situation that will allow me to run the textbook files:-
i) get Matlab doing what I want on Windows. (yes I do want to do this because
it give me a control to see that I have everything working on as I need it on
Linux. And because it is important to be able to do things on Windows for
those time when I don't have a choice)
ii) get Octave compiled and use the textbook examples there. (I have had
trouble with this, I'll try again today. And ask here for help if I can't
get arround them)
Group B: situation that will allow me to do some neural nets but not use
textbook files
i) Scilab - it doesn't have much in the way of neural nets, so I could be up
with 2 Mb of tying in examples, and perhaps some translation ... (I am not
keen to follow this option at all)
ii) Find a program written in C that does neural nets. - (I would love to be
able to use, or look at neural nets done in C, and possibly even write my
assingments as C programs rather than Matlab programs. But I think I need to
be able to run the matlab exaples so that I can figgure out how they work
before I tackle this one)
Does anyone know of any C programs to that do any neural nets?
Finally there is one off the planet suggestion.
Prolog would be great to write neural nets in but being an interpreted
language it would take "400 years to run" (to quote my lecturer). I don't
suppose there is any such strange best as a prolog compiler?
