# Manipulating data on Linux

This is an introduction to those using Linux for data analysis for the first time.

*It came from a post by <span class="caps">UCI</span> colleague Harry Mangalam to [UC-<span class="caps">CSC</span> Mailing List](https://maillists.uci.edu/mailman/listinfo/uccsc)*

“As an aid to helping students accomplish the basics on one of our   
clusters, I’ve written up a doc that describes some of the tools and   
utilities (and gotchas) that they might encounter. You’re welcome to   
use, re-use, or modify it as per the Creative Commons Documentation   
license. Suggestions, additions, edits, are welcome.”

A work in progress, it’s available here:
