errors running example 1

The error happens at https://github.itap.purdue.edu/wenbinyugroup/msg_design/blob/1841bdd0493506f039d578f8646ffdd7cd530db8/scripts/msgd/da/design_analysis.py#L347-L349

I believe it's because the data_proc_funcs cannot be imported successfully. You can manually append current path to sys.path.
The search path is the path to the file of design_analysis.py which does not contain data_proc_funcs

[unitasium]

By default python will add the current directory (e.g., example/evals/eval.1) to its search path.
Can you post the detailed error message?

It searches in e1 folder, but data_proc_funcs is not in e1 folder.
