How to view file timestamps?

That's an excellent follow-up question! To view file timestamps, you can use the ls command with specific options.

The most common way to do this is with the -l and -t or -u options:

ls -l (long listing format): This command shows a lot of information about files and directories, including their permissions, ownership, size, and the last modification time.
```
ls -l example.txt
```
ls -lu (last access time): To specifically show the last access time (when the file was last read or opened), you can use the -u option with -l.
```
ls -lu example.txt
```
stat command: For even more detailed information, including all three timestamps (access, modify, and change), the stat command is extremely useful.
```
stat example.txt
```

Try one of these commands on the example.txt file you just created or touched, and you'll see how the timestamps are displayed!
