Yeah, those two files are the main ones!

Wait, ~/.bashdefaults? Is that even real?

Nope, just ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile for sure.

I thought ~/.bashconf was a thing too?

Definitely ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile!

I keep mixing up ~/.bashdefaults and ~/.bash_etc; I hope I don’t confuse them on the exam!

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think both ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile were the answers.

I’m not so sure about ~/.bashconf, but I feel like ~/.bash_profile might be important too.

I think I remember that ~/.bashrc is definitely one of the files that affects the Bash shell behavior.

No problem, I've got this. The ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile files are the ones that affect Bash shell behavior. I'm confident in that.

I'm a bit confused by the options here. I'll need to double-check my understanding of Bash configuration files to make sure I select the right answers.

Ah, I remember learning about this in class. I think the ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile files are the ones that affect Bash behavior.

Okay, let's see... I know the ~/.bashrc file is important, but I'm not sure about the others. I'll have to review my notes on Bash configuration files.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to think carefully about which files can affect Bash shell behavior.

This question seems straightforward - the correct answer is clearly C, where the auditor should apply additional procedures if they become aware of a potential illegal act.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. I'll need to carefully trace the flow of the code to figure out what's happening.

Wait, there's a ~/.bash_etc file? I'm pretty sure that's just a myth, like the Loch Ness Monster or the Yeti. Definitely going with B and E.
BR
Brandon

Let's go with B and E then. Those are the ones that actually exist.
IR
Iraida

I've never heard of ~/.bash_etc either. B and E seem like the right choices.
TE
Tequila

Yeah, I agree. Those are the correct files to choose.

I think ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile are the ones that affect the behavior of the Bash shell.

Ooh, I'm going to go with B and E. Those are the classic Bash config files, and the rest just sound like they were made up to confuse us.

User 2: Yeah, the others do sound made up. Good choice on B and E.
EI

User 1: I agree, B and E are the ones that actually affect the Bash shell.
ME
Meaghan

Haha, I bet the answer is B and E. The other options sound like they were made up by someone who's never actually used Bash before.
TA
Tamesha

Definitely B and E! I can't believe they're even including those other weird-looking options. Who even uses ~/.bashdefaults or ~/.bash_etc anyway?
VI
Vince

I'm not sure about ~/.bashdefaults and ~/.bash_etc. I think they are not standard files for Bash configuration.
LI
Lilli

Hmm, I think it's ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile. Those seem like the most logical options based on my understanding of Bash configuration files.
MO
Moon

Yes, ~/.bashconf is not a standard file for Bash shell behavior.
AL
Alonzo

I think ~/.bashdefaults and ~/.bash_etc are not valid files for Bash configuration.

I always make sure to check those files when customizing my Bash shell.

I agree, ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_profile are the correct files.

I agree with Rossana. Those files are commonly used to customize the Bash shell behavior.

I think the correct answers are B) ~/.bashrc and E) ~/.bash_profile.
