Changing Into a Folder - Linux Terminal
00:00 Okay, so now that we have created this folder, and you basically proved to me that it exists by trying to run the command again, and your terminal was saying, like, Hey, it’s already there. So now I want you to change into this directory. Yes.
00:16
So we talked about how we’re working with the active directory, and at the moment—or the working directory—and at the moment, that’s just my home directory. To change the active directory, we use cd, change directory, and then again, it needs a name, so I’ll just type in pb_terminal.
00:34
Now we can see that the prompt here changed a little bit, telling me that I have moved into pb_terminal inside of my home/ directory.
00:42
Okay. So, and if you’re now running pwd again, we see the whole path where you are. Yep. Perfect.
