1.1 Learning goals
My primary goal is to empower users to use the powerful Unix framework to use existing tools for analysis without the need to create specialized software.
I use these tools all the time, even for simple tasks. This is the first time that I am sharing what I do in this fashion within a tutorial. I do rely a lot on search engine research and repositories of questions that others have already asked and experts have answered. This allows me to piece together the string of commands that I am testing for creating an output. There is often more than one answer possible.
