Hi, I just started to learn about Linux. I had follow the instruction here(under file there) by typing " file <name of file> " but it always show "No such file or directory" .
Do I make any mistake?? The picture below shows how I did it.

Your terminal's working directory is not the same as the directory which contain the file. You need to first
CODE
cd Downloads

I still got problem XD
I'm learning about copy, move and remove file from here
Can you explain or give me a more specific example instead of the general example shown in the guide?
The command that I don't understand are listed below.
1. cp file1 file2 file3 directory
2. cp file1 dir1 (what's the difference between this and cp file1 file 2?)
3. cp -R dir1 dir2 (what's the difference between between this and cp file1 file 2?)
4. mv file1 file2 file3 dir1
5. mv dir1 dir2 (what's the difference between this and mv file1 file2?)
6. rm -r dir1 dir2 (what's the difference between this and rm file1 file2?)
Thank you.
