Matlab Will Not Add Path

I am trying to call a function from the command window, but I constantly am obstacle by the message

Undefined function 'gDiscrPdfRnd' for
input arguments of type 'double'.

So, I searched this messaged in google. According to this post here, a possible cause for this is that matlab can not find the file. I found this page which tells of how to add the path. So, I typed in the command

addpath('C:\Users\Eli\Documents\MATLAB\final project\help')

and then I typed in 

which gDiscrPdfRnd

which gave me the error 'gDiscrPdfRnd' not found. How can I fix this?

EDIT: The output of cd('C:\Users\Eli\Documents\MATLAB\final project\help');dir is

.                       IdealGasSimulation.zip  randpdf                 
..                      gDiscrPdfRnd funct      randpdf.zip             
IdealGasSimulation      gDiscrPdfRnd funct.zip
Solution

  • There is no file gDiscrPdfRnd.m in the folder, put it into the help directory or add the folder where the gDiscrPdfRnd.m is placed.
