Which of the following is the correct syntax to change to a directory named projects inside the current directory?
Acd /projects
Bcd ~projects
Ccd ..projects
Dcd projects
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:

  1. Step 1: Understand relative vs absolute paths

    Without a leading slash, the path is relative to the current directory.

  2. Step 2: Analyze each option

    cd projects changes to the projects folder inside current directory; cd /projects looks in root; others are invalid.

  3. Final Answer:

    cd projects -> Option D

  4. Quick Check:

    Relative path cd projects = C [OK]
Quick Trick: No slash means relative path; use cd foldername for subfolders [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Using /projects looks in root directory
  • Adding invalid characters like ~ or .. before folder name
