Partly checked. None of the 4 questions here has been read against the cited source by a person. 4 questions have been checked against their cited clause by an automated pass — which is not the same thing, and is not a signature.
Only questions a person has signed for are used in mock exams here. That is the whole difference between the two kinds of checking above.
Questions in this lesson
- Select the TWO true statements about locale environment variables. machine-checked
- On a systemd-based distribution, which command sets the system's time zone to Europe/Berlin, updating /etc/localtime accordingly? machine-checked
- Which statement correctly compares ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8? machine-checked
- The file notes.txt is encoded in ISO-8859-1 and you want the converted UTF-8 text printed on standard output (not written to a file). Type the complete iconv command, using the exact charset names ISO-8859-1 and UTF-8. machine-checked
