In this first part of the Linux and Ubuntu command line tutorial, we explain

How to start a terminal, create folders and files, edit files, list content of folders (directories), create hidden files, erase files, and erase folders. Also, we will learn what are root and home directories.

Learning the Linux command line is very important if you want to become robotics, control, or machine learning engineer. For example in Robotics, the Linux command line is very important since Robot Operating System (ROS) is based on the Linux command line. We have noticed that a significant number of students and robotics learners are simply copying and pasting different Linux commands from online tutorials without properly understanding the meaning of commands that they are typing. This is a very ineffective learning practice. Moreover, this is a dangerous practice that should be avoided, since it can create issues with an operating system or it can cause removal of important files. Consequently, it is of paramount importance to properly learn how to use the Linux command line.
