module: Load a module.
$ module load ${module_name}
try on your machine

The command "module load ${module_name}" is a command commonly used in Unix-like systems, specifically in environments that use the Environment Modules software.

Here's the breakdown of the command:

  • "module load" is a command used to load a specific module into the system. Modules are essentially software packages or libraries that can be loaded into an environment to provide additional features or functionality.

  • "${module_name}" is a variable placeholder that represents the name of the module you want to load. When using the command, you need to replace "${module_name}" with the actual name of the module you want to load.

By executing this command, the specified module will be loaded into the environment, making its features and functionality available for use. The specific actions performed during module loading depend on the module system and the module itself.
