Function to Create New Directory and Jump Into it Immediately

I want to create command to create new directory and jump into it immediately and I found this solution. Just add md () { mkdir "$1" && cd "$1" ; } function to .bashrc. Oke this is my intruction.

Go to home directory

cd ~

Open and edit .bashrc file with vim or nano

nano .bashrc

Add function to end of command. Exit with ctrl+x y and enter

md () { mkdir "$1" && cd "$1" ; }

Reopen your terminal or restart it

exec bash -l

Now you can create new directory and jump into it immediately with

md directory_name
