+1. In this assignment I suggested you use `fgets()` to get user input in the main while loop. Why is `fgets()` a good choice for this application?
+
+ > **Answer**: Because it takes an argument for maximum length and prevents buffer overflow, 'fgets()` is a solid solution for this application. Additionally, because it reads the entire line, it is convenient and behaves like a command shell (input ends when the user hits enter).
+
+2. You needed to use `malloc()` to allocte memory for `cmd_buff` in `dsh_cli.c`. Can you explain why you needed to do that, instead of allocating a fixed-size array?
+
+ > **Answer**: For `cmd_buff`, using `malloc()` offers flexibility, guards against stack overflows, and guarantees persistence during execution. It facilitates simpler changes and maintains consistency in memory management with other allocations. Dynamic allocation, as opposed to fixed arrays, prevents wasteful stack utilisation and accommodates possible future resizing. Memory leaks can be avoided by properly deallocating using `free(cmd_buff);`.
+
+
+3. In `dshlib.c`, the function `build_cmd_list(`)` must trim leading and trailing spaces from each command before storing it. Why is this necessary? If we didn't trim spaces, what kind of issues might arise when executing commands in our shell?
+
+ > **Answer**: Commands are appropriately interpreted and performed error-free when leading and trailing spaces are trimmed. If left untrimmed, trailing spaces may obstruct parameter parsing, while leading spaces may result in erroneous command names. Unexpected behaviour could result from this, including not recognising built-in commands like "exit" or "dragon." Untrimmed spaces can also result in inconsistent command comparisons, which reduces the shell's dependability. Trimming ensures clean input, which keeps things functioning properly and avoids execution mistakes.
+
+4. For this question you need to do some research on STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR in Linux. We've learned this week that shells are "robust brokers of input and output". Google _"linux shell stdin stdout stderr explained"_ to get started.
+
+- One topic you should have found information on is "redirection". Please provide at least 3 redirection examples that we should implement in our custom shell, and explain what challenges we might have implementing them.
+
+ > **Answer**: In a Linux shell, redirection gives you control over the input and output streams. Important instances include input redirection (`<`), which reads from a file rather than the keyboard, error redirection (`2>`), which redirects STDERR to a file, and output redirection (`>` and `>>`), which sends STDOUT to a file (overwriting or appending). Managing file permissions, appropriately altering file descriptors with system calls (`dup2()`), and making sure outputs are merged in the correct order (e.g., `2>&1`) are some of the implementation challenges. A strong custom shell requires effective file management and proper error handling.
+
+- You should have also learned about "pipes". Redirection and piping both involve controlling input and output in the shell, but they serve different purposes. Explain the key differences between redirection and piping.
+
+ > **Answer**: While pipe (|) joins the output of one command to another directly, redirection manages input and output between commands and files. While pipes allow for real-time command communication without the need for intermediate files, redirection stores or retrieves data from files. For instance, ls | grep txt dynamically filters results, whereas ls > output.txt writes output to a file. Implementing piping is more difficult and calls for inter-process communication through the use of pipe() and fork().
+
+- STDERR is often used for error messages, while STDOUT is for regular output. Why is it important to keep these separate in a shell?
+
+ > **Answer**: Clarity, debugging, and appropriate command chaining all depend on keeping STDOUT and STDERR distinct in a shell. Regular output is handled by STDOUT, and error messages are handled by STDERR, which makes sure that errors don't affect the desired outcomes. For instance, the error warning displays independently of the valid output when ls nonexistentfile is executed. Because of this division, users can filter or reroute problems without compromising regular output. Additionally, it guarantees that pipelines (|) function properly by preventing errors from being inadvertently handled by the subsequent command. Without separation, it would be challenging to discern between errors and correct output, which would reduce the reliability of automation and troubleshooting.
+
+- How should our custom shell handle errors from commands that fail? Consider cases where a command outputs both STDOUT and STDERR. Should we provide a way to merge them, and if so, how?
+
+ > **Answer**: In order to handle command errors, our custom shell should appropriately capture STDERR and offer insightful feedback without interfering with regular output. The shell should show the error message and let the user continue running the command if it fails. When a command outputs both STDOUT and STDERR, we should provide a means to use redirection to combine the two when necessary. For logging or additional processing via pipelines, this enables users to merge error and standard output into a single stream. To put this into practice, dup2() must be used to manage file descriptors correctly, guaranteeing that commands execute without hiccups and providing users with control over how failures are handled.
