How to write the output into the file in Linux

To write the output of a command or script into a file in Linux, you can use the > operator. The > operator redirects the output of a command or script to a file, overwriting the file if it already exists.

Here's an example of using the > operator to write the output of a command into a file:

ls -l > file.txt

This command will execute the ls -l command, which lists the files in the current directory, and write the output to the file file.txt. If the file file.txt already exists, it will be overwritten with the output of the ls command.

You can also use the >> operator to append the output of a command or script to a file, rather than overwriting it.

Here's an example of using the >> operator to append the output of a command to a file:

ls -l >> file.txt

This command will execute the ls -l command, and append the output to the end of the file file.txt. If the file file.txt does not exist, it will be created.
