Hi friends!
The purpose of this repo is for us to have a place where we can put instructive resources. Hopefully, this way whenever someone is starting to delve into a new challenge (Compute Canada, parallel programming, bash scripts, etc) they have many helpful documents available!

- Organization:
- If you're submitting a new tutorial or document, first check if there are any existing subdirectories where it can go. Else, create a new subdirectory!
- Please make sure not to do
git add .or something similar; we don't wan't random files like__pycache__or.DS_storefloating around.
- Author statement: Don't forget to put your name and date at the top of the document.
- Table of Contents: Once you're done, add a section to the table of contents briefly explaining your document.
- Closing issues: If your document resolves an issue, include something like "closes #10" in your pull request, which will automatically resolve the issue when it's merged.
Here you'll find a basic intro to bash, as well as some sample bash scripts in the subdirectory

- An introduction to everything Compute Canada, from setting up your .bashrc and python environment, to submitting your first job.
- A template job script that contains most of the flags you need to include when you
sbatcha job.
- A guide to using GPUs on Compute Canada.
