The path i'm working in is /home/intro112/start/2 directories (dir-and dir-b)2 files (Newfile-a and file-b)
Home
Intro112
Start
Dir-a & Dir-b
2 files in Dir-a (Newfile-a & File-b)
(These aren't in order)
1.) (I'm in dir-a) It's asking me to move new-filea to dir-b.
My answer: mv newfile-a /home/intro/start/dir-b
Could I instead do: mv newfile-a ../dir-b
2.) (I'm in dir-a) It's asking me to display start directory contents without moving to the start directory.
My answer: ls /home/intro112/start
Could I do : ls ..
3.) (I'm in dir-a) Move file-b to dir-b and rename the file to new-fileb
Not sure about this one
I'm a little confused about the . and .. commands, in my book it says that . will keep you in the working directory, and .. to mean the parent directory. Do you only want to use dots when you plan on actually moving to that directory?
