Linux Administration

& This operator allows you to run commands in the background of your terminal. && This operator allows you to combine multiple commands together in one line of your terminal.

This operator is a redirector - meaning that we can take the output from a command (such as using cat to output a file) and direct it elsewhere.

This operator does the same function of the > operator but appends the output rather than replacing (meaning nothing is overwritten). ls -lh: file permissions
