Creating Directory Structure - Terminal

To complete this task, install the tree command:

sudo apt install tree

You will need the touch, chmod, and mkdir commands to complete this task.

Create the following directory structure, which should look like this when you run cd ~ && tree tmp_dir/:

~/tmp_dir/
├── animals
│   ├── cat
│   └── dog
│       ├── komondor
│       ├── puli
│       └── vizsla
├── colors
│   ├── blue
│   ├── green
│   └── red
├── py_exec.py
├── simple_text.txt
└── top
    └── middle
        └── bottom
            └── hello.txt
13 directories, 3 files

The ls -l ~/tmp_dir/ command should show rwx values similar to the following:

drwxr-xr-x 4 he he 4096 Feb 17 14:54 animals
drwxr-xr-x 5 he he 4096 Feb 17 14:55 colors
-rwxrwxrwx 1 he he    0 Feb 17 14:52 py_exec.py
-rw-r--r-- 1 he he    0 Feb 17 14:53 simple_text.txt
drwxr-xr-x 3 he he 4096 Feb 17 14:43 top

Solution Guide

mkdir -p top/middle/bottom
mkdir -p colors/{red,green,blue}
mkdir -p animals/{cat,dog/{vizsla,puli,komondor}}

Text Files

If not already created, create a ~/tmp_text/ directory.

Inside the directory, create a hello.py file and populate it with the following content from the terminal:

import sys
print('\nHello vilag!\nA verzio pedig:\n' + sys.version)

Make it executable and run it.

Solution Guide

chmod +x hello.py
./hello.py
