Change to a different directory

cd(change directory)

The command cd directory means change the current working directory to 'directory'. The current working directory may be thought of as the directory you are in, i.e. your current position in the file-system tree.

To change to the directory you have just made, type

cd unixstuff

Type ls to see the contents (which should be empty)

As an exercise you can try to make another directory inside the unixstuff directory called backups.
