010-160 Exam - Question 57


Most commands on Linux can display information on their usage. How can this information typically be displayed?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: DE

Most commands on Linux provide usage information by using the -h or --help options. These options are widely recognized and implemented across various commands to display help messages, showing the available options and how to use the command. Other suggested options like --manpage do not exist in typical command usage. Therefore, running a command with -h or --help will typically display the usage information.

Peeps! Run this cmd on your virtual machine and you will see that it is not possible to have "D" as the answer. It is e and when input to cmd line it produces the results to make the question correct. You can also research this on the net and find that man is the correct answer

D is correct only in the --help format, not in the -h format. Try to do ls -h for example and ls --help

correct answer is E, the help command is only listed in the section regarding 'using zip'. While --manpage has to do with displaying info on most commands and their usage.

D. If you don’t know how to use a command i.e. you don’t know about its parameters and return type etc, then you can make use of –h or –help command.
