1. To begin with I use the tutorial of CuArrays. There, it is pretty straightforward that one should add and use the packages. There are no additional variables’ settings specified. These pop-up on trying to run the code on colab.
2. For the longest time, I was clueless about running Julia on Colab. For, the procedure mentioned here [https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-on-google-colab-free-gpu-accelerated-shareable-notebooks/15319?u=ennvvy](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-on-google-colab-free-gpu-accelerated-shareable-notebooks/15319) was broken. I had to wait for a couple of weeks to be able to fix this issue.

I am not finding flaws here with the community. I am only reporting the problems that I have faced, hoping the feedback leads to better user experience eventually.
