It's a vicious circle.Ģ) If you are using multiple licenses, and we run out of licenses, please consider releasing one or two so that we are not out any more. LC has two licenses for AMS on the OCF and two on the SCF.ġ) Please do not hold onto IDL licenses overnight ('hoarding') unless you are actually using them - hoarding licenses creates artificial scarcity and encourages further hoarding by others. Calling one of the IDL AMS routines will cause an IDL Analyst license to be checked out to you until you quit IDL. To use the Advanced Math and Statistics (AMS) routines that are available with IDL Analyst, start up IDL in the manner shown above. If you are running the X window system, IDL can also be started with the idlde command, which invokes a convenient multiple-document interface called the IDL Development Environment. Starting IDL with the idl command begins a traditional IDL session using a simple text command line interface. IDL for UNIX can be used with one of two different interfaces.

For more information about using this feature, see this help article: Quick tips for customizing your IDL program search path Usage You can also use the environment variable IDL_PATH to include personal files in IDL's search path. The module load idl command will setup your PATH and any other needed environment variables. The actual installation directories are in /usr/tce/packages/idl Settings You can specify a particular version in the module command, e.g., module load idl/8.8.1 Type module avail idl to see the available options. Multiple versions may be accessible via modules. Links to the latest version exist in /usr/tce/bin

Note that IDL for Mac OS X does not support AMS or ISML. IDL at LLNL includes four licenses for the Advanced Math and Statistics (AMS) package, two on the OCF and two on the SCF networks. IDL is the programming language of choice for many scientists and engineers because it’s easy to learn, easy to use, and requires fewer lines of code than other programming languages, making it easier and faster to go from data to discovery. With IDL you can interpret your data, expedite discoveries, and deliver powerful applications to market. IDL is a scientific programming language used across disciplines to extract meaningful visualizations from complex numerical data. IDL (Interactive Data Language) is a product from 元Harris Geospatial. NOTE IDL is not currently available on CORAL systems.
