How to display first lines of a file?

To display the first lines of a file, you can use the head command in Unix-like operating systems. Here’s how to do it:

Syntax:

head -n <number> <filename>

Example:

If you want to display the first 5 lines of a file named example.txt, you would run:

head -n 5 example.txt

Additional Notes:

• By default, head displays the first 10 lines of a file if you do not specify the -n option.
• You can replace <number> with any positive integer to specify how many lines you want to see from the beginning of the file.
