This command is used to list files available in your Linux operating system. If you are in the root folder then you can type ls command in your terminal. you will see list of the files available in the root folder. For example: as you see in the image below I have entered ls command. it is showing currently available files in my root folder.

Pwd - Print working directory. Shows current directory

ls - Will list out all the files in the directory

cd - Change directory

mkdir - Make new directory

cp - copy 

mv - move

cat - view file contents

touch - create a file

 

Practice with these. Once you are comfortable move on to advanced commands

Hope this helps!
