PhD in Reservoir Geology and subsurface storage Michael Dondrup (Michi): Researcher in Bioinformatics at CBU :man-facepalming: AM OSMAN ELRAYAH : PHD CANDIDATE FROM THE DENTISTRY DEPARTMENT 😁 Nora Hatletvedt: PhD student at the Mohn Cancer Research Laboratory 🔥 Lucrezia Berton, PhD student at Mohn Cancer Research Lab :+1: ### General Questions & Answers before we start: * No questions, all good :smile_cat: ### **[Introducing the Shell](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/01-intro.html)** Link for downloading the files: https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/data/shell-lesson-data.zip Enter questions below: * My prompt looks very different from Siri's. Is it a problem? - No, the looks of the prompt can vary and are customizable. You could make it look whatever you like 😎 :::success #### Key Points * A shell is a program whose primary purpose is to read commands and run other programs. * This lesson uses Bash, the default shell in many implementations of Unix. * Programs can be run in Bash by entering commands at the command-line prompt. * The shell’s main advantages are its high action-to-keystroke ratio, its support for automating repetitive tasks, and its capacity to access networked machines. * The shell’s main disadvantages are its primarily textual nature and how cryptic its commands and operation can be. ::: ### **[Navigating Files and Directories](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/02-filedir.html)** Enter questions below: * Write your question here... - Answer will come here... * Some jargon * `~` is a shortcut to your home directory. You can use `cd ~` to change to your home directory in one command. * `..` is the parent folder (i.e., the folder containing the folder where we are now). `cd ..` moves you to the parent directory * `.` is "here", the directory you are in right now * A hidden file (or directory) is a file that isn't shown with a normal `ls` command. They normally start with the character `.` such as `.ssh`. To see hidden files you must use the `ls -a` command (`-a` for "all") * An absolute path starts with a `/` (or with the drive name in Windows, e.g., `C:`) a relative path does not. (special case for `~` which is an absolute path) :::success *KEY POINTS* * The file system is responsible for managing information on the disk. * Information is stored in files, which are stored in directories (folders). * Directories can also store other directories, which then form a directory tree. * pwd prints the user’s current working directory. * ls [path] prints a listing of a specific file or directory; ls on its own lists the current working directory. * cd [path] changes the current working directory. * Most commands take options that begin with a single -. * Directory names in a path are separated with / on Unix, but \ on Windows. * / on its own is the root directory of the whole file system. * An absolute path specifies a location from the root of the file system. * A relative path specifies a location starting from the current location. * . on its own means ‘the current directory’; .. means ‘the directory above the current one’. ::: ### **[Working With Files and Directories](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/03-create.html)** Here is the link to [download the data for the shell lessons](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/data/shell-lesson-data.zip) :::success *KEY POINTS* - `cp [old] [new]` copies a file. - `mkdir [path]` creates a new directory. - `mv [old] [new]` moves (renames) a file or directory. - `rm [path]` removes (deletes) a file. - `*` matches zero or more characters in a filename, so `*.txt` matches all files ending in `.txt`. - `?` matches any single character in a filename, so `?.txt` matches `a.txt` but not `any.txt`. - Use of the Control key may be described in many ways, including `Ctrl-X`, `Control-X`, and `^X`. - The shell does not have a trash bin: once something is deleted, it's really gone. - Most files' names are `something.extension`. The extension isn't required, and doesn't guarantee anything, but is normally used to indicate the type of data in the file. - Depending on the type of work you do, you may need a more powerful text editor than Nano. ::: ### **[Pipes and Filters](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/04-pipefilter.html)** Enter questions below: * Where can I find the `|` symbol on my keyboard? * standard QWERTY Norwegian keyboard layout: `§½` found to the left of `1!`. * Mac QWERTY Norwegian keyboard layout: `ALT` `+` `7` - This might change if you did a `Terminal -> Settings ->Keyboard krysset av "Use Option As Meta` settings * QWERTY English keyboard layout: `\|` found to the left of `Z` * QWERTZ German keyboard layout: `<>|` found to the left of `Y` * Why using `>>` should be useful? Ok I am seeing it now.. - `>>` appends to a file while `>` overwrites that file. Some jargon * `>` is called the __redirect__ operator. It sends output that would normally appear on screen to a file e.g. `wc -l *.pdb > lengths.txt` sends output from `wc -l *.pdb` to `lengths.txt` * `|` is called the __pipe__ operator. It takes the output of one command and _pipes_ it into the next command :::success keypoints * wc counts lines, words, and characters in its inputs. * cat displays the contents of its inputs. * sort sorts its inputs. * head displays the first 10 lines of its input. * tail displays the last 10 lines of its input. * command > [file] redirects a command's output to a file (overwriting any existing content). * command >> [file] appends a command's output to a file. * [first] | [second] is a pipeline: the output of the first command is used as the input to the second. * The best way to use the shell is to use pipes to combine simple single-purpose programs (filters). ::: ### **[Loops](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/05-loop.html)** Enter questions below: :::success keypoints * A for loop repeats commands once for every thing in a list. * Every for loop needs a variable to refer to the thing it is currently operating on. * Use $name to expand a variable (i.e., get its value). ${name} can also be used. * Do not use spaces, quotes, or wildcard characters such as ‘*’ or ‘?’ in filenames, as it complicates variable expansion. * Give files consistent names that are easy to match with wildcard patterns to make it easy to select them for looping. * Use the up-arrow key &uarr; to scroll up through previous commands to edit and repeat them. * Use `Ctrl+R` to search through the previously entered commands. * Use history to display recent commands, and ![number] to repeat a command by number. ::: ### **[Shell Scripts](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/06-script.html)** Enter questions below: :::success keypoints * Save commands in files (usually called shell scripts) for re-use. * bash [filename] runs the commands saved in a file. * $@ refers to all of a shell script’s command-line arguments. * $1, $2, etc., refer to the first command-line argument, the second command-line argument, etc. * Place variables in quotes if the values might have spaces in them. * Letting users decide what files to process is more flexible and more consistent with built-in Unix commands. ::: ### **[Finding things](https://swcarpentry.github.io/shell-novice/07-find.html)** Enter questions below: :::success keypoints * find finds files with specific properties that match patterns. * grep selects lines in files that match patterns. * --help is an option supported by many bash commands, and programs that can be run from within * Bash, to display more information on how to use these commands or programs. * man [command] displays the manual page for a given command. * $([command]) inserts a command’s output in place. ::: :::info - [Linux command cheat sheat (NRIS)](https://training.pages.sigma2.no/tutorials/unix-for-hpc/cheat-sheet.html) ::: ## Feedback Day 1: All feedbacks are provided anonymously and we cannot track your response (unless you provide us with a name, which is not necessary) ### Positive: * Brain blowing, intense, hurtfull but helpful at the same time :) * It was very helpful. I had no idea about programming but the course is helping me build the basics. * In general, it was easy to follow the lectures and ask for help :) * It was a great course * (Not for this course; but I would love to join a similar course not as beginner as this one) * Many helpers! Excellent climate friendly lunch! Easy to follow! Much needed! * I really enjoyed and I think that I learned new things and got more confident in what I knew already. Your patience and support are amazing! * Very interesting to learn about! Great with examples on the screen that we could do the different tasks at the same time * It is nice to see what my dad spent his life doing as work * Excellent help! (Very helpful and friendly helpers) * Very well prepared & organised * Great course & preparation done! You guys are so dedicated on teaching us! Thank you! * Very informative so far! Looking to the rest of course! * Very informative! * All good * Great to have a support team around * The course is fantastic ### Negative * A bit too much in limited time * Go a little bit slower * It was not easy to see the screens :( * Not enough explanations. Too much tehcnical language assuming knowledge people who are new to this don't know. Too fats on the examples. Not waiting for those w problems to catch up * The session in the afternoon went to fast. Several things I couldn't follow * Difficult to see screens. Suggesting "Arbeidsrom" @ UPihil next time. Explain what wer are going todo befor we start writing the code - context :heart: * At times it went by really fast, and it felt a little bit unstructured * Nothing really went wrong may be some exercises on loops next time * I missed the application part of these tools. For ex.: why should I use the for loop? Why should I use the sort? I missed relating these tools to a "research question." May be a case scenario & research question would help! * Too much content, screens are not large enough * A bit fast on some of the sessions. * A bit too slow and seemed a bit unplanned and unstructured. But maybe it was because of the need to wait. Perhaps it would have been useful to split up in complete beginners vs. some previous experience. # Tuesday 23rd of April: ## Roll call Please add your **name** to the roll call below, mark whether you're taking **Python or R**, and an **emoji** how you feel at the moment 🤔 And if you haven't done so [yesterday](#Before-we-start-we-would-like-to-get-to-know-a-bit-more-about-you-), please also a **short snippet of who you are**.
