Solution

To show a list of users on a Unix-like system, you can use the awk -F':' '{ print $1}' /etc/passwd command. Here's how it works:

  1. Open your terminal.

  2. Type awk -F':' '{ print $1}' /etc/passwd and press Enter.

  3. The command will display a list of user names.

The /etc/passwd file is a text-based database of information about users that can log into the system. The awk command is used to manipulate data. In this case, it's used to print the first field (user names) from the /etc/passwd file. The -F':' option tells awk to use : as the field separator.
