    You’re absolutely right. That’s the command i had typed precisely.

    Now how to merge the two folders into one ??

    I am learning the command line actually.

      If they are empty, I would just delete them with rm -r Odin and do the same for Projects, otherwise you coul d for instance move all content of Projects to Odin with mv Projects/* Odin and then rename Odin with the same command mv Odin 'Odin Projects' and then delete the remaining Projects folder

        I removed the two folders using the command that you’ve taught me, but when i am trying to remove yet another folder, this is what it’s showing.

            Files have a concept of ownership and have permissions on them. Some permissions can stop you from deleting them. If you own the file you can add a “-f” option to the rm to force it to delete. You can also change the permissions and ownership on files.

        Thanks. I apply the rm command, and create a new folder afresh.

        Actually, the course that i am doing has got many steps missing.
