The **//pwd//** command in Linux and Unix-like systems stands for "print working directory".  It is used to display the path of the current working directory that you are in.

For example, if you are currently in the "Mail" directory located in your home directory, the **pwd** command will display the path "**/home/great-user/Mail**".

1. Here is an example of the "pwd" command:

<code>
$ pwd
/home/great-user</code>

In the above example, the output shows that the current working directory is "**/home/great-user**".

2. Another example:
<code>
$ cd /var/log
$ pwd
/var/log</code>

In this example, the **cd** command is used to change the working directory to "**/var/log**" and then **pwd** command is used to show the current working directory is "**/var/log**".
