Installing the Latest Version of Julia on Linux
Julia’s latest version as of this post is v1.3.1.
Guide
Step 1. Download Julia
Download the file that matches your CPU’s bit from Generic Linux Binaries for x86.
Step 2. Unzip and Move
Unzip it.
Move the folder to where Julia is to be stored. This can be any location of your preference, but this post has moved it to /home/[username]/julia-1.3.1
.
Step 3. Symbolic Link
Use the following command to create a symbolic link.
sudo ln -s /home/[유저이름]/julia-1.3.1/bin/julia /usr/bin/julia
By running Julia through the command, you can confirm that version 1.3.1 is installed properly.
If You Don’t Need the Latest Version
sudo apt-get install julia
Using the above command, you can quickly install without setting up a symbolic link. However, this method does not install the latest stable version.
Environment
