Background

Read Chapters 1-3 of TLCL. Practice the commands at least once, but don’t worry about memorizing them, you will naturally memorize the as you use them more often.

Self Study

1. Practice being aware of what your current working directory is.
2. The behavior of some commands depends on the current working directory when they are executed, while other commands don’t depend on the value of the cwd. Categorize the commands you have learned so far based on this distinction. What properties of a command might you be able to deduce based on what category it is in?
3. Recognize the difference between relative and absolute paths
