Every user has a home directory. Your home directory is the root
in the tree containing all of your files. When you login, you
are initially in your home directory. If you type cd with
no directory name after it, you are moved to your home directory.
To find out the pathname of your home directory, cd to your
home directory and then use the pwd command to see the pathname.
