The Linux “shell” is the command-line interface to the Linux operating system. It is built in to all Linux systems, from Android devices to the world’s largest supercomputers, including NIH’s Biowulf cluster. In this four-week series of two-hour workshops, we will introduce Bash, by far the most popular version of the Linux shell and a useful scripting language for Linux. Instructors will use the Linux terminal and you will follow along on a remote Linux system accessible by all course registrants, allowing you to gain a strong foundation in the fundamentals of and best practices for using Linux. NOTE: This is a four-part course, held weekly for four weeks from 11 am – 1 pm, with a 20-minute lunch break. When you register, you are registering for all four weeks. Please make sure you have time in your schedule to commit to all four sessions! Registration is required; please register here.
