Solution

Here are the steps to perform the task:

  1. Open your terminal.

  2. Navigate to the /home/analyst/reports/users directory by using the cd command:

cd /home/analyst/reports/users
  1. To list only the files containing the string "Q1" in their names, use the ls command piped into the grep command:
ls | grep Q1

This command will list all files in the current directory and then grep will filter out only those files which contain "Q1" in their names.

ls | grep access
