      3 # At this point, you have learned many commands that are used and you
      4 # won't be able to remember them all at the top of your head. Instead of
      5 # going into your notes on into this folder, use the '--help' 
      6 # (sometimes '-h') to see the basic usage or the 'man' command to get
      7 # a more detailed documentation
      8 #
      9 # $ cat --help     # displays a basic help message
     10 # $ man echo       # enters you into a more detailed portal
     11 #
     12 # You should try out those commands right in the terminal.
     13 #
     14 # If there are more specific use cases or you only need a few commands
     15 # that you keep forgetting, consider using the 'ffr' command located at
     16 # https://github.com/davidvoz/toyotacorolla/blob/main/ffr
     17 # For the linux users here, copy that code into .local/bin/ffr and add
     18 # the line below to your .bashrc or .zshrc. Follow the instructions on
     19 # the script and try it out.

     21 # $ export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

     23 # To keep this exercise simple, figure out how many lines the man page
     24 # for cat uses, and the amount of words in ls's help command
     25 
     26 echo "$amount_cat" # leave this unchanged
     27 echo "$amount_ls"  # leave this unchanged
