→INVESTIGATION 1: ABSOLUTE / RELATIVE / RELATIVE-TO-HOME PATHNAMES
[[Image:dir13.png|right|350px|thumb|]]
:You may think that issuing Linux file management commands are better using '''relative''' or<br>'''relative-to-home''' pathnames instead of '''absolute''' pathnames, but this assumption may that is not always be correcttrue.
:Since the current directory location was your '''home''' directory, then it makes sense that using relative or relative-to-home pathnames are more efficient. On the other hand, what if we changed the location to a different directory? Then perhaps, using an absolute pathname would be preferable.
