But :q! is the command to quit without saving in vi or vim

B) ZZ seems like it might work, but I'm pretty sure that's for saving and exiting, not just exiting without saving. I'm going with A) :q!.

The :q! command is definitely the way to exit without saving in vi or vim. I always use that when I accidentally make changes I don't want to keep.
