module: Unload a specific loaded module.
$ module unload ${module_name}
try on your machine

The command "module unload ${module_name}" is used to unload or remove a specific module from a software environment.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "module" refers to a software module management system. It is commonly used in Unix-based operating systems to manage different software environments and versions.
  • "unload" is an instruction to unload or remove a module from the current software environment. When a module is unloaded, any changes or configurations made by the module will be reversed.
  • "${module_name}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the module you want to unload. You need to replace "${module_name}" with the name of the module you want to remove.

In practice, you would replace "${module_name}" with the actual name of the module you want to unload. For example, if you have a module called "python/3.7.2", you would use the command "module unload python/3.7.2" to remove that specific version of Python from the software environment.
