How can you view the current processes in the Linux operating system?

In Linux, to view current processes, you can use several commands:

• ps — displays a list of processes. For example, ps aux shows all processes with detailed information.
• top — an interactive real-time process monitor.
• htop — an improved version of top with a user-friendly interface (requires installation).
• pidof <process_name> — shows the PID of a process by name.

Example usage:

ps aux | grep nginx

This will show all processes related to nginx.
