Thanks, that will be a useful tip for others who may read this thread.

Your post actually contains signs of multiple problems. I'm using the Import3D tool on a .asc file. I'm then using the n3d, x3d, y3d, and z3d functions on a section to iterate over what I presume are the 3D positions of all the segments in that section You realize that * a section's first and last 3...

Check to see if the readline library exists on your computer. If it doesn't, download and install it, then uninstall and reinstall NEURON. How? Depends on your Linux distribution. For distributions that use rpm for package management, rpm -q readline and rpm -ivh readline are your friends. Debian-re...

For hypothesis testing purposes I'd like to have one compartment in the multi-compartment cell transmitting currents to all the connected compartments but not receiving current from all compartments. Is that doable in NEURON? If I correctly understand what you want (and I'm assuming that you aren't...

I'm distributing models as part of a python package. During a post-install script I'd like to compile all of the mod files that are in a subfolder of the package, and I'd like NEURON to be able to find the resulting .dll from any folder on that machine. Right now it only seems to look in the curren...

I'm trying to obtain the surface of the different compartments. I understood that to obtain it for a section I should write totalarea_soma = 0 soma for (x,0) totalarea_soma += area(x) # take into account the number of nseg True. soma for (x,0) statement is equivalent to the following pseudocode: fo...

triggers an error message because \ is not recognized as an operator. Python thinks it is a line continuation mark. hoc doesn't recognize it at all. Search the Programmer's Reference for the term operator, or read Python's own reference materials.

See chapter 9 of the NEURON Book. If you don't have the book, get this preprint https://www.neuron.yale.edu/ftp/ted/book/revisions/chap9indexedref.pdf If you installed NEURON from source code, see nrn/share/examples/nrniv/nmodl/cadif.mod which may be slightly different from the example in the book. ...

That's a very good question. NEURON's computational engine can calculate ionic equilibrium potentials in the course of a simulation. If your model includes an NMODL-specified "ion accumulation mechanism" (a mechanism with a USEION statement that WRITEs the intra- or extracellular concentration of on...

No, NEURON works with Python 2.7 as well. But there's not much point in configuring NEURON to use 2.7 because the people who develop Python are terminating support for 2.7 in 2020. If I were you, I'd uninstall both NEURON and Python, then I'd install the latest stable Python 3.x, and after that I'd ...

Don't worry about that--you don't have to repost anything. The new thread will go in this same discussion area, because it's about using rxd.

Recent distributions of NEURON require Python to be installed in order for Model View to work. If Python is not already installed on your computer, suggest uninstalling NEURON completely (if you're using Windows, run c:\nrn\uninstall.exe and then be sure to c:\nrn and its contents if that directory ...

Good that warning turned up. Always specify an appropriate method. runge, adrunge, adams etc. are not appropriate. See
