→Part 1: Using the Linux Shell
Some professors will require students successfully perform these online tutorials for marks (within a deadline). <br>In order to confirm that you successfully performed a tutorial, you will be required to run a program<br>(or in later tutorials, several programs) to prove that you successfully completed tasks in a tutorial.
These programs (known as Shell Scripts) will check your work and offer feedback if you made mistakes, so you can make corrections. <br>Making corrections (i.e. troubleshooting) and re-running these checking programs until you are successful will help students <br>gain "hands-on" experience that will help them complete the online assignments.
Students whose professors do NOT assign marks for these online tutorials are encouraged to perform them for "hands-on" practice. The checking program for this tutorial is just showing proof that you were able to connect to your Matrix account from your home computer.
