Haha, C is classic. Move everything with -Rf, what could possibly go wrong? I'm just going to go ahead and try that one.

I think E is the way to go. Copying the files recursively with -rf seems like the safest option to me.

Option B looks good, but I'm not sure about the -f flag. Shouldn't we just use mv without any extra flags?

That makes sense too, but I think E) cp -rf /A/* /b/ is safer in case we need to keep a backup of the files in /A.

I disagree, I believe the answer is B) mv -f /A/* because we want to move the files and directories, not copy them.

I think the correct answer is E) cp -rf /A/* /b/ because it copies all files and directories from /A to /B.
