Ansible Installation

Install Ansible
Add location of the directory containing the ansible binary to your PATH
Set Locale Encoding to UTF-8

Ansible requires the locale encoding to be UTF-8. You can either use the LANG prefix when running Ansible commands or set the system-wide locale
- Option 1: Use LANG Prefix in Commands
  
  If you prefer not to change the system-wide locale, you can use the LANG prefix when running Ansible commands:
```
LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ansible-playbook your_playbook.yml
```
- Option 2: Set System-Wide Locale
  - Edit the /etc/default/locale file:
```
sudo nano /etc/default/locale
```
  - Set the LANG variable to en_US.UTF-8:
```
LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
```
  - Reboot your system or log out and log back in to apply the changes
