Write the syntax and purpose of ATTRIB command?
Attirb command is used to change the attribute of any file of directory. There are following kinds of attributes in DOS:
Among all, Archive (A) attributes applies by default as we create any file or directory. System (S) attribute is reserved for the System Files (IO.SYS, MSDOS.SYS, CONFIG.SYS) of MS-DOS. We can apply Read Only or Hidden attributes to any file or directory to make it read only of hidden. The syntax is as follows:
To make file Read Only: attrib +r
To make file Hidden: attrib +h
To remove Read Only attribute: attrib -r
To remove Hidden attribute: attrib -h
Similarly we can set/remove Archive (A) or System (S) attributes to file with +a/-a or +s/-s option.

A Wild card in MS-DOS is a character that can be used to filter the data that you are searching. Wild cards that MS-DOS uses are * and ?
This can be understood by the following example:
If you want to search all the files starting with the letter - a
enter the following command in he command line
dir a*.*
Of if you want to search all the text files that will start with 'amin', you can use:
dir amin*.txt
Now, if you want all the files that begin with any letter and ends with 'amin.txt'
you can use:
dir ?amin.txt
which will show you:
aamin.txt
bamin.txt
camin.txt
This can be understood completely if you try it out yourself
Thank you
