Option D, of course! Gotta love those double-angle brackets, they make me all warm and fuzzy inside.

I'm feeling lucky, let's go with option B! Wait, is that the right command for Google?

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I might have to consult the man pages to be sure.

I'm going with option D, it will append the output of ls to the file data instead of overwriting it.
