These files will be named as follows (you will substitute your last name instead of Ortiz. Do NOT use Ortiz as part of your file names (if your last name is Ortiz then use Ortiz2 as your last name ). This is just an example. My files would look like this: ProjectOrtiz42.txt ProjectOrtiz43.txt ProjectOrtiz44.txt After you have created the three files, use the ls command to show the files have been created. A screen shot is not required at this time. 3. From the textbook: Reference Ch 4 mkdir - Create a directory named CTS2321. At the command line type ls . You should see all three files and the directories you just created. If you do not, you did not complete the task correctly. No screen shot required. 4.
