Re: How to do 100 simulation runs, 7 at a time

Id write a simple bash script - thats all that should be needed

typing the following on a commandline would execute one command after
another, sequentially

command1 && command2 && command3 && ...etc

Or, you could write a bash script

#!/bin/bash
command1
command2
command3
etc

which should execute commands sequentially, ie, the next command should
not execute until the first returns successful status - correct me if my
understanding is wrong.


So, consider writing a single script that takes the following form, and
run 7 of these scripts at once (perhaps executed from a mother script
that takes the number of an argument). This is just psuedocode mind you.


subroutine{
 pick some job from a queue, some list or text file or something
  if no jobs are left in queue, exit this script
 remove this job from queue
 run the job
 subroutine - call this function again
}

main{
subroutine
done
}
