How to list files by name?

To list files by name in a directory, you can simply use the ls command without any options:

ls

This will display the names of the files and directories in the current directory in alphabetical order.

If you want a detailed listing (including file permissions, owner, size, and modification date) sorted by name, you can use:

ls -l

Both commands will list the files and directories by name in ascending alphabetical order.
