Install Jupyter and Jupyter-lab

We will make extensive use of Jupyter-lab to document work and to take notes. You will also need to use Jupyter-lab as a notebook that you will submit at the end of the semester for your final project. To install them, type in your terminal:

conda install jupyter

and

conda install jupyterlab

You will have to type “y” when you are prompted for confirmation after typing these commands. Now these tools should be installed in your command line environment.

How to use Jupyter-lab?

I will be demonstrating its use during class.

Tools to install for next week

Using conda, you will need to install a few tools that we will be using during class next week. The tools are:

• sra-tools

• fastqc

• bbmap

Using examples I have shown above, search and install these three tools on your computer.
