Activate virtualenvs with python

1. Install Virtualenvwrapper - this is my favorite way of creating virtualenvs

sudo apt-get install virtualenvwrapper

2. Install on the compute as well, where 4 is the number of compute nodes:

srun -N 4 sudo apt-get install virtualenvwrapper

3. Install your python packages in a shared directory, in this case /fsx/ubuntu:

cd /fsx/ubuntu
mkvirtualenv packages 
pip3 install torch

4. Create a job script

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH -N 1
