Expected output
openat(AT_FDCWD, "/etc/app/config.yml", O_RDONLY) = 4
Why practise typing this
Typing processes code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation Linux uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
