think of sudo <command> as the equivalent of "Run As Administrator". It
turns you into administrator ('root') and executes that command. To
understand it, type the following commands into a terminal and it
should look like:

$ whoami
tsang
$ sudo whoami
root

The greatest command, though, is 'man'. It is help for every command
and is invoked like

$ man whoami
 * q to quit
$ man sudo
 * q to quit
