Week 8

After some time, we finally got a working program to compile the fault dictionary. The only problem is that modelsim, the commercial program we use to find the outputs for the random patterns, decided to stop working for the 4th time. After debugging as much as possible with print statements, we decided to give up and try running a clock tutorial to see if modelsim would even run that. It did not. However, it did run on my mentor's account so we looked in my home folder and saw a hidden .modelsim file. After moving all of my files into another directory, modelsim worked!

... temporarily. After running several tests, modelsim developed the same problem. This time moving all my files into a temporary directory did not work. Hopefully we can fix this problem (again) by next week so we can finally start collecting data.
