This lab requires a little more critical thinking skills than lab 1. I've done exercises like this before in a database setting. I think I had a difficult time with the rearranging letters question because I needeed to go back to see how I can write it concisely. The longer my pipes got, the more likely I was to making mistakes. I did ask my group mates for help and the discord chat. I am getting more comfortable with that.

Exercises
Answer the following questions (or at least as many as you can figure out) in this document. For all the questions, use the 100k words. Give your answer for each exercise, and show the command you used to get it. Each question can be answered using a single Terminal command, though you might need to use a number of pipes.
If you want to be really stylish, put your code inside of backticks like this:
cat words_100k.txt | length | put 10 | equal | count
