---+!! Computational Environment Setup for Bioinformatics and Computational Biology

%TOC%

So, you want to harness the immense power of bioinformatics and computational biology for your science? 

Here's some advice that will save you headaches and make your life easier when working in a Linux/UNIX environment.

*NOTE: These instructions are for setting up your Linux/UNIX computational environment. This might be on your local machine, but it could also be on a computing cluster like TACC that you log into remotely.*

Instructions for setting up your local machine (for example, your laptop) are covered over at [[ProtocolsComputerSetup][Computer Setup]].

---++ Introduction to the Shell

---+++ Login Scripts and your <code>$PATH</code> (<code>.bashrc</code>)

---++ Using TACC

---++ Conda 101

---++ Miscellaneous Timesavers

   * [[ProtocolsSSHPublicKeyAuthentication][Setting up SSH Public Key Authentication]] %BR% Save yourself typing your password every time you connect to TACC or another server
   * [[CommandLineBox][Using lftp to copy files to/from UT Box]] %BR% Copy and mirror files from/to your computer and TACC or other servers.
