Using a Specific Software Module
To use a specific software package, run the module load
command. The module load
command in itself does not execute any of the programs but only prepares the environment, i.e. it sets up variables needed to run specific applications and find libraries provided by the module.
After loading a module, you are ready to run the application(s) provided by the module. For example:
module load mathematica
