 To find file and directory names, you use a command called `find`
 
+| Example command  | Description |  
+|------------------|-------------|
+| `find . -type d` | `find` recursively descends the directory tree for each path listed to match the expression given in the command line with file or directory names in the search path |

+#### b.1) Commonly used `find` options
 
-* **`find . -type d` -->
-	* **`-type [df]`** --> d lists directories; f lists files
-	* **`-maxdepth n`** --> `find` automatically searches subdirectories. If you don't want that, specify the number of levels below the working directory you would like to search
-	* **`-mindepth n`** --> starts `find`'s search n levels below the working directory
