Linux Essentials (010-160) — Question 23

Which command displays file names only and no additional information?

Answer options

• A. ls -a
• B. ls -lh
• C. ls -l
• D. ls -alh
• E. ls -nl

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the 'ls -a' command lists all files, including hidden ones, without any additional information. Options B, C, D, and E all provide extra details such as file sizes or permissions, which goes against the requirement of displaying only file names.
