You may see many instructions referring to apt-get. However, in the past couple of years the simpler apt is becoming popular. Your manager at work asked to identify and explain the technical differences between apt and apt-get commands of Linux to the IT department. Question 2: (nano, vim and Emacs) text editors In Unix and Linux systems, the configuration of the operating system, servers, applications and preferences is commonly stored in plain text files. You want to view the hardware attached to the system? View a text file. You want to set the colour scheme for your terminal? Edit a text file. Your manager at work asked you to explain why text editors and files are important? Assignment 1 - Part B (Weight 7%) This assignment requires you to test, analyse, and compare any two (2) of the monitoring tools listed in Table 1. Marks will be awarded according to: (i) depth of exploration and explanation of features, and (ii) quality of evaluation and comparison of the chosen tools.
