1.which

Which is used to see the path of the current command to be executed

For example:

[root@admin ~] # which python / usr/bin/python

If I enter python directly, the output is the default execution path of the python command: / usr/bin/python

How the which command works: searches for the location of a system command in the path specified by the PATH variable and returns the first search result. That is to say,

Using the which command, you can see whether a system command exists and where the command is being executed.

Examples of use of the which command:

$which grep

2.whereis

Whereis is used to view the path where a command or file is located

For example:

[root@admin ~] # whereis python python: / usr/bin/python / usr/bin/python2.6 / usr/lib/python2.6 / usr/lib64/python2.6 / usr/include/python2.6 / usr/local/python / usr/share/man/man1/python.1.gz

Whereis will search for all files or folders with python in their names.

Whereis command principle: can only be used to search for program names, and only search for binaries (parameter-b), man description files (parameter-m), and source code files (parameter-s). If the parameter is omitted, all information is returned.

Examples of use of the whereis command:

$whereis grep
