The command find find files on the filesystem.
Example:
find / # List all files
find /etc # List all files under the /etc directory
find / | wc -l # List all files, but don't show them on the screen
# The "|" is a pipe which directs output to the
# wc command as input. wc is wordcount. The toggle
# "-l" means count lines.
