Hello, I am using version 10.8.4.
This is a built in example that is part of general. When you start octave you need to load the package using pkg load general Then when you run it using parcellfun_example it should run. The serial part does but the parallel starts and then dies. Not sure why. Sorry for my vague question but thanks for your response.
