What Unix directory is used to store executable files?

Which directories are most important on Linux?
/ The root directory. All other directories are under this one./boot The kernel image, bootloader, and are stored here./etc Many of Linux's configuration files, including kernel module configuration./bin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin Any of these "bin" directories will hold executable binaries (i.e. program commands)./usr This holds most user applications, documentations, graphics, etc./lib, /usr/lib Important system libraries are stored here./root The system administrator's home directory./home All other home directories for all users are here. For example, a user's home directory might be /home/user./var Variable data, such as mail spools, log files, etc./tmp Temporary files created and used by applications./dev Devices are setup in this directory./mnt Mount points for filesystems, whether physical or virtual./proc This is a virtual directory which contains information about the kernel/lost+found Files that might have been recovered after a bad shutdown or other event might show up in the lost and found.
How many files in the root directory?

What to do when compiler is not accepting include files?
You have to specify where the include-directories are.Example for gcc: -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/include
What is the difference between the root directory your home directory and your working directory?
The root directory is the top level directory of the entire file system. Every branch starts from there. The current working directory is where you happen to be in the tree at the moment. If the root is always "/" and my process is in the directory /usr/local/bin/test/data, then the root directory is still "/" and my working directory is currently /usr/local/bin/test/data
What does an absolute path-name look like in Linux?
It is the path as relative to the topmost directory, /. For example, /usr/bin is absolute, but ../bin is relative (Means "the directory 'bin' in the parent of the current directory.")
Where is the program files folder located in openSUSE?
Application binaries in Linux distributions (including openSUSE) are stored in several directories, depending on their purpose or method of installation. These are: /sbin /bin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /usr/local/bin
