Question: Is ‘du’ a command? If so, what is its use?
Answer: Yes, it stands for ‘disk usage’. With the help of this command you can find the disk capacity and free space of the disk. |

| "du" reports the disk usage by each sub-dir under the current directory. "du" *does not* show the free disk space. Use "df" for this. |
