Unix command line fundamentals
The Linux command line, also known as the terminal or shell, is a powerful tool that allows you to control your computer directly with text commands. While it might seem intimidating or strange at first, Linux offers a lot of flexibility and efficiency once you have acquired the skill.
In addition, High Performance Computing (HPC) systems are powerful tools used for complex calculations and data analysis, and often controlled by Unix command lines.
Participants will get started with the basics in this workshop and learn to navigate through folders and view files. You will need a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer to participate. Students can borrow a laptop through the library Tech Lending program.
