 nf-core provides a set of standard labels that you should follow where possible, as seen in the [nf-core pipeline template](https://github.com/nf-core/tools/blob/main/nf_core/pipeline-template/conf/base.config).
 These labels define resource defaults for single-core processes, modules that require a GPU, and different levels of multi-core configurations with increasing memory requirements.
 
-Values assigned within these labels can be dynamically passed to a tool using the the `${task.cpus}` and `${task.memory}` Nextflow variables in the `script:` block of a module (see an example in the [modules repository](https://github.com/nf-core/modules/blob/bd1b6a40f55933d94b8c9ca94ec8c1ea0eaf4b82/modules/nf-core/samtools/bam2fq/main.nf#L30)).
