Running the commands from this tutorial

You can run the commands in this tutorial either directly from the Jupyter notebook (if using Jupyter), or by typing the commands in your terminal window.

Running commands on Jupyter

If you are using Jupyter, command cells (like the one below) can be run by selecting the cell and clicking Cell -> Run from the menu above or using ctrl Enter to run the command. Let's give this a try by printing our working directory using the pwd command and listing the files within it. Run the commands in the two cells below.


In [ ]:
pwd

In [ ]:
ls -l

Running commands in the terminal

You can also follow this tutorial by typing all the commands you see into a terminal window. This is similar to the "Command Prompt" window on MS Windows systems, which allows the user to type DOS commands to manage files.

To get started, select the cell below with the mouse and then either press control and enter or choose Cell -> Run in the menu at the top of the page.


In [ ]:
echo cd $PWD

Now open a new terminal on your computer and type the command that was output by the previous cell followed by the enter key. The command will look similar to this:

cd /home/manager/pathogen-informatics-training/Notebooks/NEW_TUTORIAL_DIR/

Now you can follow the instructions in the tutorial from here.

Let’s get started!

This tutorial assumes that you have X, Y and Z installed on your computer. For download and installation instructions, please see:

To check that you have installed these correctly, you can run the following commands:


In [ ]:
X --help

In [ ]:
Y --help

In [ ]:
Z

This should return the help message for X, Y and Z respectively.
