\subsection*{Advanced Unix Tools}
Most Unix implementations include a large number of powerful tools and utilities. (Unix has been in development for more than 50 years!). We were only able to scratch the surface in our class time. It will take time to become comfortable with Unix, but as you struggle, you will find yourself learning just by looking at \texttt{man} files and finding solutions on the internet. For this Homework, you will explore several more advanced Unix functions. You can use any resource available to you--classmates, the internet (Google and ChatPGT!), and Dr. Johnson. Ask all the questions you want, just make sure you do the work and you learn!

\begin{enumerate}
\item Learn more about tools for downloading files from external servers (e.g., \texttt{scp}, \texttt{ftp}, \texttt{sftp}, \texttt{rsync}), and for to downloading data from webpages (e.g., \texttt{curl}, \texttt{wget}, \texttt{mget}). Use an appropriate function to download the \texttt{homework2.tar.gz} from the homework folder on course GitHub page. Give the code you used to download these data.({\bf Hint:} To download the \texttt{homework2.tar.gz} from GitHub, control/right click on the "View raw" link and copy the location (see image). If you use the URL in the address bar it downloads the .html for the website. Note this picture might be from a different homework and class, but the action is still the same.)

You can also us pipes in R! Investigate how to do this and give the code for a great example.

\item Learn about another Unix command that we have not discussed. Give a short description of this function, when you would use it, its syntax, and give some examples of its use.

\item What does the command git clone do, and how is it different from git pull?
\item Initialize a new Git repository in a local folder and create a file named README.md. Add some text to it, commit the changes, and push it to a new GitHub repository. Submit the link to your repository.
\item Fork the \href{https://github.com/wevanjohnson/my.package}{https://github.com/wevanjohnson/my.package} directory and clone it to your local machine. Then add your name as an author in the DESCRIPTION file local repository and add a multiplication function to the R package (R folder).
