Notes on Creating Username

There are a few ways to create a username and password

  • After installing ubuntu version 20.04 there will be a prompt to enter new UNIX username
    • A good username option would be to use your UND username with underscores instead of periods
    • Next Prompt will be to create a new password. Hit enter when done.
      • Note: When you type in password, it will look like nothing is being typed!
    • Retype password
    • The next prompt will ask for full name, etc. You only need to put in your name. Press enter to get through rest of prompts.
  • If there is no prompt to create a username and password after installing, or you want to create another username on ubuntu, use the following lines:
    • $ sudo adduser 'put username here'
      • Note: Make sure you put the username you want after adduser and before hitting enter
    • Follow the steps above to finish creating username and password

Notes of executing Fortran file in ubuntu:

Create a file in a text editor (such as vim)

  • $ vim filename.f

After creating and writing in file, check the permissions to file

  • $ ls -l filename.f

If file does not have executable permissions, type in command:

  • $ sudo chmod +x filename.f

  • $ ./a.out

Move a.out file to original filename
