Description:

Part of the Galter Library and NUIT Computational Skills for Informatics Series.

Instructor: Janna Nugent, Sr. Bioinformatics Specialist, NUIT Academic & Research Technologies

If you’ve learned the command line, you’re ready to learn how to use bash programming to automate your workflows and speed up your research. Bash programming helps with using remote clusters, running code, and automating data processing and analysis. In this introduction of Bash shell programming we will use the command line interface to navigate a unix environment to introduce variables, loops, and conditional operations in order to automate shell operations using scripts.

This is a hands-on session.
Prerequisite: Intro to the Command line or previous introductory experience with Bash scripting.

Users are encouraged to bring their own laptops for this session. Library computers are not equipped for command line scripting.

If you are a Windows user and do not have a command line editor, you need to install X-Win32, or a similar command line application.

Space is limited. Register using the link below.
