There will be a post class tutorial of how to add channels permanently if you feel this is something you would benefit from after the class.

titleConda Channels

By the end of this course you may find that the 'bioconda' channel is full of lots of programs you want to use, and may choose to permanently add it to your list of channels so the above command conda install fastqc and others used in this course would work without having to go through the intermediate of searching for the specific installation commands, or finding what channel the program you want is in. Information about how to do this, as well as more detailed information of why it is bad practice to go around adding large numbers of channels can be found here. Similarly, when we get to the read mapping tutorial, we will go over the conda-forge channel which is also very helpful to have.
