The command line is a text-based interface for interacting with your computer, allowing you to type commands instead of using graphical interfaces.
Benefits of learning the command line include increased efficiency, more control over your computer, and access to powerful tools and features.
Basic commands include pwd (Print Working Directory), ls (List), cd (Change Directory), mkdir (Make Directory), touch (Create Empty File), cp (Copy), mv (Move or Rename), rm (Remove), cat (Concatenate and Print), less (Views file contents one screen at a time), head and tail (Show the beginning or end of a file).
As you gain familiarity with the command line, you can explore advanced topics such as environment variables, package managers, SSH, permissions, and troubleshooting techniques.
