Assignment 2

The aim of this assignment is to continue familiarization with git and basic Unix commands.

Instructions

1. In the repository, you will find a directory files1 with a file lorem1.txt inside it. Create a copy of lorem1.txt called lorem2.txt inside the files1 directory.

2. Use cat to concatenate lorem1.txt and the newly created lorem2.txt, redirecting the output to a new file lorem3.txt inside the files1 directory.

3. Recursively copy files1 to files2.

   Your final directory/file structure for the repository should appear as

   assignment2/
   ├── .devcontainer
   |   ├── Dockerfile
   |   ├── conda_init.txt
   |   ├── devcontainer.json
   |   └── noop.txt
   ├── .github
   |   ├── CODEOWNERS
   |   └── workflows
   |       ├── main.yml
   |       ├── update-badges.yml
   |       └── update-students-repo.yml
   ├── files1/
   |   ├── lorem1.txt
   |   ├── lorem2.txt
   |   └── lorem3.txt
   ├── files2/
   |   ├── lorem1.txt
   |   ├── lorem2.txt
   |   └── lorem3.txt
   ├── .gitignore
   ├── LICENSE
   ├── README.md
   ├── environment.yml
   └── test.py
   

4. Add the newly created files/directories to your git repository, commit, and push the changes to Github for submission.
