Hello,
I have this assignment and I wrote the code for the first paragraph.
The problem now is that the numbers printed in the command window seem to be 10000x smaller than those in the txt file.
I have linked both documents and s snippet from my code.
Thanks

I suspect there is an exponent indication out-of-view in the image you posted.
When I read and reshape your file as in your previous Quesion, then display part of it:
format short
MatrixSegment = Dm(:, 1:2000:end)
the result is:
MatrixSegment =
1.0e+03 *
0 0.0250 0.0500 0.0750 0.1000 0.1250 0.1500 0.1750
0.0221 0.5001 0.6421 0.7601 1.0171 1.1331 1.2931 1.4421
0.8147 0.7449 0.4271 0.2323 0.6791 0.1538 0.5812 0.3430
0.5000 0.0147 0.2661 0.8725 0.9134 0.3267 0.0030 0.4337
Note the ‘1.0e+3 *’. That is the multiplier for the entire matrix.

Corrected typographical error.

My recommendation would be that you go into Preferences -> Command Window -> Text Display, and choose numeric display "long g", and also Preferences -> Variables -> Default array format: and select "long g" (this affects the Variable Browser)
Then give the command
format long g
and display your numbers again.
What you overlooked is that the first line of output said
1e4 *
