A file system hierarchy consists of a number of files and directories. The "make directory" command is used to create directories. General usage is
mkdir directory E.g. mkdir test
The example creates a directory named "test" under the current directory. In UN*X operating system directories and files are treated similarly. Therefore they can not share the same name. The above example would fail if a file named "test" already exists.
