What, no option for 'All of the above'? That's how I usually ace these tests. Time to put on my thinking cap and really dig into the details.

Wait, is the answer A? I'm pretty sure the 'wheel' group is for sudo access. Maybe they're trying to trick us here. Clever, Linux exam writers, very clever.

Hmm, D maybe? The question says the account is created, but it doesn't explicitly mention a home directory. Better double-check that one.

I think it's C. The -m option creates a home directory, and the shell tells me they're set up for login access. Looks good to me!

I'm not sure, but I think D) It is not assigned a home directory could also be a possibility.

This is easy, the answer is B. The command assigns the user a shell but doesn't set a password. Gotta love those Linux one-liners!

That's correct, it's a common practice for creating user accounts in Linux.

I think you're right, the command does set a shell but no password.

I agree with Tammy, because the -m flag creates a home directory for the user.
