I am trying to open the file from ATOM, regarding the machine learning basics course, and it cannot seem to find it.

MachineLearningBasics) Simrans-MacBook-Pro:~ simranbansari$ cd ~ /simranbansari/Desktop/ml/ml.py -bash: cd: simranbansari/Desktop/ml/ml.py: No such file or directory (MachineLearningBasics) Simrans-MacBook-Pro:~ simranbansari$ cd simranbansari\Desktop\ml\ml.py -bash: cd: simranbansariDesktopmlml.py: No such file or directory (MachineLearningBasics) Simrans-MacBook-Pro:~ simranbansari$

I am continuously receiving the error when typing my directory to the folder.

Try changing (cd) one step at a time per directory to make sure you're actually getting the directories right. I.e. just switch to your desktop first. Then ml directory. I suspect it's an issue with how you're trying to get to the Desktop, if you're already effectively at home directory in your terminal you should only need to type cd Desktop/ml/ml.py
