 This section assumes a basic working knowledge of Unix development including the use of an command-line editor (e.g., [[https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/tour/|Emacs]], Vim), basic Unix commands and utilities (e.g., ls, cd, man), and development toolchains (g++, Python3, Make).
-===== Python3 Extras =====
-==== Interactive Interpreter ====
-The Python3 interactive interpreter (typically invoked with ''python3'' on the command line) allows for the entry of arbitrary Python3 commands, making it a great calculator and a great place to test simple ideas.
-==== Interactive Interpreter: Loops ====
+===== Pipes and Redirects =====
-<code python>
+Pipes ''|'' and redirects ''>'' are common tools for creating basic workflows by manipulating input and output of programs and files or streams. Like many
->>> from math import *
->>> for i in range(10):
+In order to illustrate the use of pipes and redirects, consider the following
-...  print(int(log(2**i, 10))+1, end=' ') # single space before the print() to simulate indentation
-...                                       # additional lines in the loop here or <return> to end
+===== Command Line Utilities =====
-1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3 >>>
+<code>
+time
 </code>
-The above fragment computes powers of two, and then uses the decimal logarithm to compute the number of digits in each power.
+<code>
+wc
+</code>
-This can be extended to basic nested structures.
+<code>
-<code python>
+man
->>> for i in range(3):
-...  for j in range(3):             # preceded by a single space
-...   print(i, j, sep=',', end=" ") # preceded by two spaces
-...                                 # single <return> keystroke
-,0 0,1 0,2 1,0 1,1 1,2 2,0 2,1 2,2 >>>
 </code>
-If you are looking to do anything more complicated, it is likely that you should create a temporary '''.py''' file.
+===== Bash Scripts =====
-==== Interactive Interpreter: Importing Files ====
+===== Python3 Command-Line Arguments =====
-The ''import'' statement can be used to import arbitrary Python3 files, which can be useful for quick unit tests (and doesn't require further file manipulation to drive tests).
