Use Of Job Control Commands in Linux

This assignment involves the use of job control commands. Explain and demonstrate the running of various job control commands for 1) running a job in the background, 2) putting jobs in the background and foreground, 3) suspending jobs, 4) stopping/killing a job, and 4) listing jobs running in the system. You can use something like the “sleep” or “vi” commands, for example, to simulate long-lasting jobs. Capture the output in screenshots of all the commands you used.

In addition, research the use of the cron/crontab utility in Linux and answer the following questions:

1. What is the main purpose of the use of cron in terms of running scheduled jobs?

2. What would be the crontab entry for a job that runs a script called “myscript.sh” found your own directory that runs once a week on Sunday night at midnight? List the line in your output file.
