Explanation / Answer

1. Folder: We can say like it is a virtual location where all the files and sub folders stores and contains the information about current and parent folders. For each folder there is a inode table there it will store the all files and folder names and thier inode ids using them it will distinguish and identifies. It is good idea because it is tree like structure so we can easily find out what we want and we can organize data in structured manner.

2. We can create a file using two modes

Command line: There are some commands to create a folder. In linux it is mkdir folder_name

And we can create using right click wherever we want the folder and select the create new folder option it will create the new folder.

And we can rename the folder using command mv current_folder to new_folder

or else we can right click on folder and click on rename folder option

3.We can change the folder options and views by commands using chmod, chown, chgrp etc

or else we can go to properties of that folder and we can change.

4.We can say like it is a container for storing some information. There are different files like text file, pdf file, excel file, html file etc.

5.It is bit-rate encoding to reduce the size for a different formats. for files and folders there are compression formats like .zip, .tar.gz etc and for audio mp3, .wav etc and video .mp4, .mkv etc

6.There are multiple word processor compressions they are like .doc, .docx, .docm, .odt etc

7.Common executable file compressions are like .exe, .out, .sh, etc

8.we can directly go to the file and check the name after the dot. For ex 1.cpp here .cpp is the extension. And a.zip here .zip is extension

9.We can save the file in different ways, if we are using some editors or ides then we can use ctrl+s to save the file if we use something like vim then in esc mode :w

10. We can copy folders in command line using command cp, ex cp from_folder_name to_folder_name

or we can copy by right clicking on the folder and select copy option and goto the destination folder and paste there or using shortcuts ctrl+c to ctrl+v
