After locating the terminal and typing 'sudo apt-get install FEniCS' it began to install what seemed to be all the components I required. Upon completion I attempted to locate any sort of application I could run but was unsuccessful. So my very simple question is how do I run FEniCS/DOLFIN after using the sudo apt-get command I used above?
