Pathname Practice

Here's a tool for practicing converting pathnames between relative, relative-to-home, and absolute formats:

  1. Login to matrix.senecacollege.ca (using SSH)
  2. Run this command:
    ~chris.tyler/public/pathpractice
  3. That command will generate a challenge based on real files that are available on Matrix. The system will show you your home directory and current directory as well as a filename, and the ask you to type in the filename converted to a different format. You will have three opportunities to convert the filename.
  4. You can run the command as many times as you'd like, any time you want to practice pathname conversion.
