Description:
This course is for researchers who have never used Linux and/or a compute cluster and introduces concepts and best practices for both.
This course covers how to best exploit the bash shell for both interactive work and batch jobs, moving & simple manipulation of data, as well very short introductions to programming in bash, Perl, and R. This is not computer science; this is a driver’s license.
Date:October 5th, 2015
Time: 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with lunch provided
Location: Donald Bren Hall, Room 3011
Instructor: Harry Mangalam, OIT/HPC, UC Irvine
