Answer 3

So I want to run the following command
!cat data_file/sample.txt

(data_file is the folder where we can find the txt file called sample.txt)

The result that I want to see when running this command is the content of the sample.txt .

Instead I receive The following error:
'cat' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
