Hints
The find command is used to search and locate the list of files and directories based on conditions you specify for files that match the arguments:
You can use REGEX in the find command.
$ find ~/ -iregex '<REGEX>'
<all files and folders in the user home that respect the specified regex>
$
REGEX for txt files: .*\.\(txt\)
The cut command is a command-line utility that allows you to cut out sections of a specified file or piped data and print the result:
$ cat cut-example.txt
abc-lol
testtest-abcx
qwerty-azerty-x
$ cat cut-example.txt | cut -d "-" -f 1 # cut the lines with "-" as delimiter and print the first part.
abc
testtest
qwerty
$
You may need to use pipes (|) and the logical operator &&.
You have to use Man or Google to know more about commands flags, in order to solve this exercice! Google and Man will be your friends!
