Grading Criteria

Root folder labeled 'Root' at the top

Two subfolders named 'Documents' and 'Pictures' connected to Root

Files 'Resume.docx' and 'Budget.xlsx' inside 'Documents'

Subfolder 'Vacations' inside 'Pictures'

File 'Beach.png' inside 'Vacations'

Hierarchy shown clearly with lines or indentation

Folders and files clearly distinguished

Solution

Root
├── Documents
│   ├── Resume.docx
│   └── Budget.xlsx
└── Pictures
    └── Vacations
        └── Beach.png

The diagram starts with the Root folder at the top. It has two subfolders: Documents and Pictures.

Under Documents, there are two files: Resume.docx and Budget.xlsx.

Under Pictures, there is a subfolder Vacations, which contains the file Beach.png.

The lines and indentation show the hierarchy, meaning which folders contain which files or subfolders.
