You have to provide more information about what you are thinking and attempting. That is the only way to effectively communicate your point(s) of confusion. Then, someone may be able to offer useful advice to clear up any doubts.
Did you read the explanatory text of the exercise? It shows you a couple of commands and also shows how you can get a list of ALL the commands (as mentioned in the sentence),
Without any argument, Get-Command will output all available CmdLets. We can also request specific CmdLets …
To narrow down the commands, we can use flags such as -Verb and -Noun. The explanatory text gives a couple of examples as well showing the usage of these flags. Step 3 wants you to use this information to carry out a similar task.
Unless you elaborate and expand on your thoughts and provide details on the sort of things you have tried to complete Step 3, it is not a reasonable expectation that your fellow students will somehow on their own identify your point of confusion.
It is your choice whether you want to complete the course or drop it. It doesn’t make a difference to me.
Just to be clear. I neither work for Codecademy nor am I associated with Codecademy. I am just a fellow student who was trying to get you to think about the task and then nudge you in the right direction based on your response.
I fail to understand what was so perplexing.
The explanatory text show how you can narrow down the commands to host-related commands by using
Get-Command -Noun Host
Step 3 wanted you to do the same but with Date, so
Get-Command -Noun Date
will accomplish the task.
Anyway, I am neither justifying anything nor do I need to justify it. If you have issues with Codecademy, you can offer them feedback or contact their help center. If you have issues with me, I don’t even know you. So, take the course or drop the course. Either way, it’s your issue.
