Turn the 1st shell 02-create challenge into MCQ #819

Closed andreww closed 9 years ago

andreww commented 9 years ago

The first challenge in the shell lesson "02-create.md" asks the learner to evaluate the result of a serise of commands. This adds four options so that the challenge can be used as a MCQ (e.g. to allow peer learning.

The proposed options are:

1 proteins-saved.dat recombine 2 recombine 3 proteins.dat recombine 4 proteins-saved.dat

Option 1 sugests the learner understands that the second argument to cp is reletive to the first argument (not the current directory).

Option 2 is the correct solution.

Option 3 sugests that the learner has mixed up mv and cp.

Option 4 sugests that, somehow, the current directory has changed to /home/jamie or /home/jamie/data/recombine
