1. Create a folder called homework:


Use the mkdir command to create a new directory:

mkdir homework

2. Copy the hello_world.c program into your homework folder:


Use the cp command to copy the file into the homework directory:

cp hello_world.c homework/

Ensure that you are in the directory where hello_world.c is located, or provide the full path
to the file.

3. Create a directory called hints:


Use the mkdir command to create a new directory:

mkdir hints

4. Create a new file called hints.txt inside the hints directory. Type in the
name of 4 Linux commands inside this file:
Navigate to the hints directory:

cd hints

Use the nano editor to create and edit hints.txt:

nano hints.txt

Inside the nano editor, type the names of 4 Linux commands (e.g., ls, pwd, mkdir, cd), then
save the file by pressing Ctrl + O, and exit the editor with Ctrl + X.

5. Create a file called junk.txt:


Use the touch command to create an empty file named junk.txt:

touch junk.txt
6. Delete the file called junk.txt:
Use the rm command to remove the file:

rm junk.txt

7. Look up the man page for a command and try an option we didn’t
discuss in class:
Use the man command to look up the manual page for a specific command. For example, to
learn more about the ls command, type:

man ls

Scroll through the options and try one that wasn’t covered in class, such as ls -R (which lists
subdirectories recursively). You can try it with:

ls -R
