How many files are displayed now, more than before? Explain.

Work with hidden files in Linux.
a. In Linux, files with names that begin with a ‘.’ (single dot) are not shown by default. While dot-files have nothing else special about them, they are called hidden files because of this feature. Examples of hidden files are .file5, .file6, .file7.
b. Use ls -l to display the files stored in the analyst home directory.


[analyst@secOps ~]$ ls –l

c. Use the ls -la command to display all files in the home directory of analyst, including the hidden files.

[analyst@secOps ~]$ ls –la

Many more as ls -la displays, in addition to regular files, all the hidden files in a folder.
