    To keep it simple, pass the full path to the file to the Get function. That's all.

    what is ''Get''? There is no link. I can't open this. How can I pass the full path to the file? Can you help me Please? I have Mathematica 11.3 in my system. But, not able to run the code in file with extension ''.m''.

If a file has the extension .m, then I assume you are trying to load a package into your notebook. This can be achieved by calling the package (say called PackageName.m) into your own notebook by doing the following:




  1. You can type into your opening like <<PackageName`, which uses the backtick symbol `. It is probably at the left hand side of your keyboard.


  2. Alternatively, this is a shortcut for the MMA function Get, given in the documentation here. The first example has the above notation I was talking about. Then Get["PackageName.m"] would work.



Here is a screenshot so you can see the backtick in action.

    Thank you so much for your kind response. Are you talking about this symbol '' ~ ''. I just type "<<PackageName(~)" in the notebook, but it does not work. I also type ''<<~'', it also does not work. Sorry to say, I am facing difficulty to learn from the example.
