Installing Julia on Linux Ubuntu


  1. Go here:    https://julialang.org/downloads/

  2. Download the installer:    64-bit (glibc)

  3. Extract the zipped file containing the installer

  4. Copy the folder Julia-1.8.5 into the computer’s folder Home

  5. Get the Julia-path, which in Linux can be obtained by (see first figure on the right):

    • Home —> julia-1.8.5 folder —> bin —> Properties —> /home/violeta/julia-1.8.5

    • “violeta” is the computer’s name (in your case, it will have a different name)

  6. Paste the Julia-path (/home/violeta/julia-1.8.5) into the .profile file (see second figure on the right):

    • Home —> .profile —> open one new line in the .profile window —> and type the following command (be careful with typos);

      • PATH=“/home/violeta/julia-1.8.5/bin:$PATH”
    • Save the updated .profile file, by choosing in its window:

      • file    —>    save
  7. Close the .profile window

  8. Julia 1.8.5 is installed.
