My optimization toolbox doesn't contain GA, pattern search and so on

I re-installed and re-downloaded many times without success. I used windows 64 bit academic version. Could you please share any thought?

Hi Varoon,

ga, pattern search "and so on" are part of Global Optimization Toolbox , not the Optimization Toolbox ...

thank you so much for your prompt response. So sorry I failed to mention, I downloaded Global optimization toolbox 3.3.1.

when I ran the code, it told me "you might need global optimization toolbox" so i clicked the red underline phrase, then clicked through the procedures on matlab website. current user>submit>get custom trial>download r2015a>windows 64bit>choose global optimization toolbox>continue. every time i did this i always got the same file 89.3 MB and after I reinstalled, I still cannot use the GA code. same error kept appearing.
