I don't really understand what you're trying to ask. I would suggest you brush off the score, work hard, and try again.

The question asked

"Which one can be used to copy ?"

"Dir > file.txt"
"Dir >>file.txt"
"Dir <file.txt"
"Dir <<file.txt"


this wasn't in my study materials? this looks like something used in unix or something

Hi,

The answer to your questions is:

DIR > myfile.txt - Takes the output of dir and re-routes it to the file myfile.txt instead of outputting it to the screen

The other answers are incorrect.

Good luck on the retake!

i've not seen it before and it's not in the dir /?

Likely you'd have seen it with more DOS work. These two sites generally have good infromation

SITE 1
SITE 2

Hello All

It looks like that question has two correct answers!

Dir >> myfile.txt will also work. Normally using the >> appends text to an existing file "myfile.txt", but also works if the file is not already there.
