Ungraded classwork

Option 1

Work on Lab 1 or 2.

Option 2

Open any graded classwork assignment and find the commands you can run to check your work under “Hints”. Can you find the use of redirection in the commands? Can you explain in words what is happening?

Now do the following:

  • Identify the part of the command that is redirecting stdout, remove it, and run the command. You should see the output written to the screen instead of to a file.
  • Put the part of the command that is redirecting to stdout back in.
  • Identify the part of the command that is redirecting stdin, remove it, and run the command. What happens now?
