More Linux Commands













We need to talk about the composition of command prompt

  • ~: The current directory. In bash, which is the default shell, the ~, or tilde, is a special character that expands to the path of the current user's home directory; in this case, it represents /home/ohhhvictor
  • $: The prompt symbol. This denotes the end of the command prompt, after which the user's keyboard input will appear



Remember that CD / is to go to the root
