The "man" command is like a help button, it gives you info on the command you specify. The best way to understand is to practice it. So try it, use the command: man rm It's safe.

mkdir -> Make a directory to a current file cd <directory> -> Move to a directory touch <filename>.<fileextension> -> Make a new file nano <filename.fileextension> -> Go to text editor to that file rm <file> -> Remove a file rmdir <directory> -> remove a directory sudo <command> <parameters> or apt <command> <parameters> PS: rm * -rf deletes all your file! :o xDD

Lesson one, never use a command unless you're absolutely sure what it does. You can do these double checks by using the "man" command to give you a detailed description of the command you want to do. Example (Ubuntu): man rm

First you gotta install what you need. If you need Python sudo install python Or Ruby sudo install ruby or C++ sudo install clang You need some stuff too. sudo install coreutils sudo install tree sudo install nano or you can do sudo install vim
