a) **What is `tmux` and how does this relate to our current way of working on raven?**
Tmux is a terminal multiplexer - it allows you to attach a terminal to a specific login session. This is why we can leave something running on raven and exit our terminal and it still runs.
b) **What is `ssh` and what would the code be you would type if you were going to `ssh` into raven?**
The Secure Shell is a way to tunnel into a remote network and establish a secure connection with a remote workstation.
If I were to do a simple ssh into raven, I would use the command: ssh scryan@raven.fish.washington.edu
However, most of the time I would set up my ssh within PuTTY to allow for x forwarding as well.
c) **What has been the most challenging part of your research project? Are you happy with your organization skills? If not what could be improved?**
The toughest part has been actually downloading and cleaning the data. I have preliminary scripts for the actual analysis now I just need to get the data in. I do need to go back and clean up the scripts though.
d) **For last weeks assignment what did you appreciate the most about knitting documents?**
Knitting is helpful because it takes exactly what you worked on and makes it look pretty with just a few extra commands. I enjoy graphical interfaces with mnimal GUI and knitting makes it very easy to write a top notch report without having to deal with any burdensome GUI.
