# A Taste of Nu
Nu has built-in commands for ls and ps, loading these results into a table you can work with.

Commands are linked together with pipes, allowing you to select the data you want to use.
```text
~\Code\nushell> ps | where name == chrome.exe | first 5
----------------------------------------
name cmd cpu pid status
----------------------------------------
chrome.exe - 0.00 22092 Runnable
----------------------------------------

----------------------------------------
chrome.exe - 0.00 21876 Runnable
----------------------------------------
chrome.exe - 0.00 13432 Runnable
----------------------------------------
```
The name of the columns in the table can be used to sort the table.
```text
~\Code\nushell> ls | sort-by "file type" size
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
file name file type readonly size created accessed modified
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
.cargo Directory Empty a week ago a week ago a week ago

You can also use the names of the columns to down-select to only the data you want.
```text
~\Code\nushell> ls | column "file name" "file type" size | sort-by "file type"
------------------------------------
file name file type size
------------------------------------
.cargo Directory Empty
------------------------------------

Some file times can be loaded as tables.
```text
