The command Ctrl + X is a commonly used keyboard shortcut that performs the "Cut" action in many applications and operating systems.

When you press the Ctrl key along with the X key (holding down the Ctrl key while pressing the X key), it is interpreted as a command to cut selected text, files, or other objects. This means that the selected item is removed from its current location and held in a temporary storage area called the clipboard.

After cutting, you can then use the Ctrl + V command (holding down the Ctrl key while pressing the V key) to paste the cut item into a new location. By using Ctrl + X followed by Ctrl + V, you can effectively move or transfer items from one location to another within an application or between applications.
