# Running the Examples and Shell

Spark comes with several sample programs in the `examples` directory.
To run one of the samples, use `./bin/run-example <class> <params>` in the top-level Spark directory
Spark comes with several sample programs. Scala and Java examples are in the `examples` directory, and Python examples are in `python/examples`.
To run one of the Java or Scala sample programs, use `./bin/run-example <class> <params>` in the top-level Spark directory
(the `bin/run-example` script sets up the appropriate paths and launches that program).
For example, try `./bin/run-example org.apache.spark.examples.SparkPi local`.
To run a Python sample program, use `./bin/pyspark <sample-program> <params>`. For example, try `./bin/pyspark ./python/examples/pi.py local`.

Each example prints usage help when run with no parameters.

Note that all of the sample programs take a `<master>` parameter specifying the cluster URL
