Free LPI 010-160 Actual Exam Questions - Question 8 Discussion

I was thinking about B and D because of the extra info, so they’re out. But what if hidden files aren’t needed? Then plain ls without -a might be better—none of the options show that though. Could A be overkill since it shows hidden files?

A vs C? C definitely shows detailed info like permissions and sizes, so it’s out. A just lists file names including hidden ones, so it fits the “file names only” part better.

Probably A since it lists files by name without extra details, hidden or not.

Maybe C is out since it definitely adds details like permissions. B and D both add sizes and dates. A just gives names, visible and hidden, so probably A fits best if hidden files are okay.

Guessing A makes the most sense since it just lists all files by name, including hidden ones, without extra details. The others all add info or formats.

Maybe D isn't right since it combines multiple flags and definitely adds details. B and C both show detailed info, so no. A shows all files including hidden, but question just says file names only, no mention of hidden files. So probably A is best fit because it just lists names without extra info, even if it includes hidden files. E shows numeric IDs which is extra info, so no. So yeah, A seems most straightforward for just file names.

A vs C? C shows details, so maybe A is right here.
