+====== Home Sweet Home ======
+When you first log in, you will be in a directory called “''home directory''”
+<code>
+/home/<your username>
+</code>
+Generally in this directory you have complete control over creating, modifying, and executing files in this or any sub directory you create. In order to return to your home directory simply type the command: ''cd ~'' at the prompt. Unless appropriate changes have been made you can can not enter anyone’s directory or even see what is in it.
