Type su or sudo before a Terminal command to get root privileges.
A
TRUE
B
FALSE
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -sudo ("super user do") is a command that lets you run other commands as root temporarily.

Detailed explanation-2: -When using sudo, you need to use the “-i” parameter. So you would log in as your non-privileged user, and then run “sudo-i", NOT “sudo-s". That gives your root user the root environment.

Detailed explanation-3: -The root privilege is required each time a user attempts to install, remove, or change any component of the software. Once a user enters a login password for granting system-based permissions, the Sudo command permits them to attain such permissions for any certain command they expect to perform.
