Morning Session

Introduction

Learning how to work your way around a command-line interface is the starting point of your bioinformatics journey. In this session, you’ll learn basic and advanced Unix commands that programmers and bioinformaticians use very often.

I want to share some resources that might be useful to your future pratice. Click here if you are interested.

I want to give you a little pep talk before you dive into the lectures:

  • You’ll only learn by doing it! So practice, practice, and practice… I mean practice a lot!
  • There are many ways to do the same thing and achieve the same results.
  • Treat your code as experiments. Write one line, test run it for easy debugging.
  • Errors are not bad! Often, errors point you to the right direction.
  • If you don’t know, ask Google!

Warm up your finger tips, my friends! Let’s log in and get started!!
