 ====== Using the GPU ======
+===== $CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES =====
+Do not set this variable. It will be set for you by SLURM.
+The variable name is actually misleading; since it does NOT mean the amount of devices, but rather the physical device number assigned by the kernel (e.g. /dev/nvidia2).
+For example: If you requested multiple gpu's from SLURM (--gres=gpu:2), the CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES variable should contain two numbers(0-3 in this case) separated by a comma (e.g. 1,3).
 ===== GRES Multiple GPU's on one system =====
