Linux CLI - Navigating the File System

You want to write a script that always starts in your home directory, then moves into a folder named projects inside it. Which sequence of commands is correct?

Acd ~\ncd projects

Bcd projects\ncd ~

Ccd /projects\ncd ~

Dcd ..\ncd projects

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Start in home directory
Using cd ~ moves the shell to the user's home directory regardless of current location.
Step 2: Move into 'projects' folder inside home
After being in home, cd projects moves into the 'projects' folder located there.
Final Answer:
cd ~\ncd projects -> Option A
Quick Check:
Home then projects folder = cd ~ then cd projects [OK]

Quick Trick: Always cd ~ first to ensure starting at home [OK]

Common Mistakes:

Changing to projects before home, causing errors
Using absolute path /projects which may not exist
Using cd .. which goes up instead of home
