Your account probably includes pre-written modulefiles that set up a basic environment for your default compilers, tools, and libraries when you log in. You can use these modulefiles as they are provided or modify them to customize your environment. 

Pre-written modulefiles are available for most commonly used applications such as Matlab and Python. 

Next, you will learn how to use the Module Command to find and load pre-written modulefiles.
