what is the function of "rm -rf"
AnswerClick to flip back
A
remove recursively and forcefully
💡 Explanation:
The 'rm -rf' command in Linux combines two flags: '-r' for recursive (removing directories and their contents) and '-f' for force (ignoring nonexistent files and never prompt). Together, these create a powerful command that removes files and directories recursively and forcefully without confirmation, making option B the correct explanation.
