bash string match on specific lines using grep

Check the string contains "error" in the last line of a file:
tail -1 error.log | grep -E "Error" && echo "yes"
or
grep Error error.log  |  tail -1
or
[[ $(tail -1 error.log | grep -E "Error") ]] && echo "yes"
note: the "[[" and "[" usage can be really different, reference here
or
tail -1 error.log | grep -qE "Error" && echo yes 
note: -q is used to silence the output of grep.

The first 2 cmds will at the same time return the "error" lines in the file, and the last 2 cmds return only  "yes" as the result.

install ipython in Cloudera VM using pip

I am practicing pyspark in Cloudera VM, and pyspack need be launched by ipython. In all the old Cloudera VM guide, it use easy_install to install ipython, but it does not work in Virtualbox 5.2.0 r118431 and later. And will get the error : $sudo easy_install ipython==1.2.1 ... error: Could not find suitable distribution for Requirement.parse('ipython==1.2.1') The solution for this is to use pip to install ipython. But by default, pip is not installed in cloudera VM, and pip can not be installed by eacy_install as well. And after some search, I  noticed cloudera has yum installed, and yum can install pip: $sudo yum install python-pip ... $which pip /usr/bin/pip Now ipython can be installed b pip: $sudo pip install ipython=1.2.1 ... Succesfully installled ipython-1.2.1 After that, launch spack by ipython: $PYSPARK_DRIVER_PYTHON=ipython pyspark ... Welcome to       ____                      ...
