In Linux everything is a file. When we execute some dangerous commands, we should pay attention to the directory we are currently in. Let's share the pwd command with you.

When a user logs on to a Linux system, his current directory is his home directory.

The pwd command in Linux system is used to display the name of the current working directory. It is the abbreviation of Print Working Directory. The basic format of the command is as follows:

[root@bogon ~]# pwd

[Example 1] Use of pwd command.

First, we use the whoami command to determine the current user name (whoami is used to determine the currently logged in user), using the following command:

[root@bogon ~]# whoami

root

The display indicates that the current user is "root."

On this basis, use the pwd command to determine the current working directory, as follows:

[root@bogon ~]# pwd

/root

The result shows that the current directory of the "root" user is his home directory/root.

It's a good idea to use pwd from time to time to check the current directory at work.
