Please don't ask us to do your homework for you. Not only is this against forum rules, but it would lead your teacher to believe that you understood stuff that you don't in fact understand at all. In which case he/she won't explain it to you.

Hi and welcome here!
please read the rules of LQ, especially this part:
Which part is unclear?

Thank you everyone for your quick response. First of all this is not my 'homework, I just start using Linux, I have followed a tutorial and I did not understand this line commands. I'm not sorry just because I asked for some questions. Have I have said this is not a home, I am not in school anymore. I have just trying to learn Linux again because when I had 17 years my father used to use it. Thank you and stay safe.

ok, so please tell us which tutorial is it and exactly where did you stuck?

Each of those commands is not a simple beginner's level command.

Or at least how they are used.

ls is fairly simple, but combining it with grep, wc, and using I/O redirection makes it more complex and also extremely specific.

You say you're doing a tutorial, I'd wonder if they break down these complex commands and describe them for you.

In the end I don't feel they'll do any harm, they're just processing outputs.

But to run some of them, I think you'd need things set up in advance so you can benefit from using the commands.

Is there a link to this tutorial?

Which one you don't understand all of them?

try this:
man sort --> https://ss64.com/bash/sort.html
man ls --> ls in schools is lazy student = in Linux ls is to list files

for grep check out this YT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckzN9P9zBhM
or check out this one for grep as well: https://opensourceforu.com/2012/06/b...u-grep-basics/

Good luck and study hard...you will get a hang of it one way or another.

Not homework, OK, then you need to do a bit of reading man pages.

Break them down into their constituent parts to understand what they do.

The first is sort -n, see what that does, then << & > are for redirection of input from 'toto' into a file called file.txt.

Do the same with the other 2 lines.

Not from toto though. If << toto is not mistyped then this is a here document and toto is the heredoc delimiter. But yes, I think here it's just a typo and should be read < toto instead. Then you're right, of course.

I don't understand what you mean by "..when I had 17 years .."?

Am I correct in thinking english isn't your native language?

And like others post a link to he tutorial please

@GPGAgent. "When I was 17", probably. The StackOverflow profile says "Student in Computer Science" though.

@OP: So, first you ask us to do your homework, which is against the rules. Then you lie about it, not very convincingly. And on top of it we have to find out that we are just second choice because your question got the boot on SO.

@shruggy: Nice detective work
