Exercises 1: Discovering Linux
Goal: |
| Linux also has hidden files, how can you see them? (Hint: Linux has zillions of commands and even more options and you will never know them all. Use the man (man stands for “manual”) to learn more about a command and its options).
Exercise 2: Create a file system structure for all exercises of this course |
|
< < | In your home directory, create subdirectories exercises, bin,src (use mkdir). Within exercises, create directories problems, solutions, doc. Within each of these create a subdirectory exercise_1. Put the file exercises_1.odt, attached to this page (see below) into ~/exercises/problems/exercises_1 (~ stands for your home directory). Print this structure using tree. |
