Command Explanation
The sudo command is used to execute a command with root privileges. In this case, it's used to install the LMOD package.
yum is a package manager for RHEL that makes it easy to install, update, and remove software packages.
lmod is a module management system that simplifies the process of loading and unloading dynamic shared libraries.
The install keyword tells yum to install the lmod package.
