Question 1: How do you list all the open programs in Linux command line?
I would like to paraphrase the quesiton to:
How do you list all the running processes using the Linux command line?
According to https://techdifferences.com/difference-between-program-and-process.html
"The major difference between program and process is that program is a group of instructions
to carry out a specified task whereas the process is a program in execution."
Solution 1:
{code} ps -A {code}
List all running processes on the system
Alternatively, {code} top {code} can be used to see the processes that are taking the most system resources.
