Sophie, a few words about the terminal.
The most important message I can give you about the terminal, if you are not familiar with it, is
that you don't have to be scared of it.
It's a different way to communicate with your computer.
A but it's a tool that we use on a daily basis.
So a software engineer is a absolutely familiar with the terminal.
But whenever you look at the terminal, you haven't had the experience before.
You don't have to be intimidated because you are only going to be using, like I would say, 5 to 10
basic operations on a daily basis.
And whenever you have any doubt, any question, even how to find the terminal in your computer, you
know, or how to make whatever operation with the terminal that you are not familiar with, just go
to the usual places.
So go to ChatGPT and ask there or go to Google or go to StackOverflow.
The usual places I have recommended you before.
So these are the six basic operations I use on a daily basis.
And I think if you learn these six basic operations, you are going to be more than comfortable with
the terminal.
So imagine how easy it is.
The first one Lw's is going to tell you a what are the files and folders in the place you are right
now in the terminal.
So if you if you enter LHS, the terminal is going to show you the folders and the files that are in
the place you are right now in the computer with the CD a command, you can start moving from one folder
to a other folder.
So if you enter CD and a folder name, you will go to the folder name a.
In particular, if you enter CD dot dot you will go to the previous folder.
So with CD folder name you go down and with CD dot dot you go up in the folder directory with PWD present
working directory.
You are going to have the path of the directory you are in the current moment in terminal with commands
like Jupyter notebook.
For example, you are going to open a new notebook in your browser and with commands like pip install
and the name of the module you are going to install a module or a plugin.
These are very, very common operations.
We do on a daily basis.
The last one pip install.
Most of the times I do it inside the Jupyter notebook.
So you will see in many of our exercises that we have in the Jupyter notebook, one command inside of
the Jupyter notebook that is going to be handling, you know, the installation of plugins and modules.
So you will see that the most important thing don't be scared of the terminal use, you know, the traditional
sources in order to solve any question you may have ChatGPT, Google, StackOverflow, etc. and a when
in doubt, you know remember where the I engineers look for answers?
This is a message that we are going to repeat often, so don't be scared and you have a doubt you know
where to find the answers.
