Location: Brendan Iribe Center, Room 1207
This afternoon workshop is targeted at users of the university's HPC clusters with limited experience in Linux/UNIX. This course will briefly cover:
- Linux/UNIX shell commands
- comparison of C-shell (tcsh) and Bourne shell (bash)
- shell scripting (basic and advanced syntax)
- accessing data in various formats on Unix
While shell scripting is not real programming, many practical tasks can be accomplished using shell scripts. Worked-out examples can be used as templates for similar projects.
Prerequisites
None. This is an introductory workshop and is targeted at new users to Linux/Unix.
System Requirements
This is a bring-your-own-laptop event. Make sure that a terminal application (e.g., ssh or PuTTY) is installed. A modern web browser (on Windows preferably Firefox) is required for use of the OnDemand web portal.
