I was about to choose option A, but then I realized that it would print the lines that *do* end with a slash, not the ones that don't. Good catch, Bette!

I'm not sure, but I think it's either A) grep '/$' foo or C) grep -v '/$' foo

I agree with Mona, because the -v option in grep is used to invert the match

Hmm, I think option C is the correct answer. The -v flag in grep is used to invert the match, so it will print the lines that don't end with a slash.
