Like we said before we can use redirectors to send input or output form one command to another. Lets try it.

For example we can redirect or transfer the output of the echo command and write it into a file by using a redirector.

• Echo is primarily used to print variables or strings to the command line, similar to “print” or “Console.WriteLine” in other languages.
  However, for now we are going to redirect its output and use it to create a file.
• There are multiple types of redirectors but for now we are going to use the Greater Than symbol.
  It redirects the output of the echo command, in this case into a text file.
  You can create multiple types of files using redirecotrs, however for this example we are going to create a text file because it’s the easiest to grasp.

Let’s type <strong”>echo, followed by the text we want our file to have, along with the greater than symbol, and the name we want our file to have along with its extension.

echo Hello World > File.txt

And our file has been created.

Using the greater than redirector will only create a new file.
To add text to an existing file we need to type the greater than symbol twice.

echo Goodbye World >> File.txt

Once again using the type command we can see that our text was added successfully.

Type File.txt

Pretty simple right?
