dirname
dirname — folder from a path. It is one of the commands you type in a terminal, and everything below is produced by running it: the output, the error you get when it goes wrong, and a terminal you can type it into yourself.
What it prints
Run against a small demo project — the same one you get in the terminal below, so the output is what you will see, not an illustration of it.
$ dirname /home/user/file.txt/home/user
Other commands
Try it yourself
Same files as above. Nothing here can break, and nothing leaves your browser.
