 your working directory (where Octave is looking right now) is probably
different than where you saved the files. Octave can't know where
everything is on your computer.  In the upper left of the GUI is a folder
tree that will show your current location and let you navigate somewhere
else. Use that (or the command line if you know how), to change your
current working folder to the folder where you saved those files. You will
be able to see the files in that folder tree in the gui when you are
there.  then, try running the files and let us know what happens.
