[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #46718] Unable to create classes

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #46718 (project octave):

Just point on the parent directory of the one you will adjoint to the path
(visible on the top left window) and run:

>>addpath ("MyDirectoryName")  

then

>> p =polynomials([1,0,0])
