The command "objdump -d ${binary}" is used to disassemble a binary file using the objdump tool. Here is an explanation of each part:

"objdump": It is a command-line tool available in most Linux/Unix systems used for displaying information about object files (including executable files and shared libraries).
"-d": This option tells objdump to perform a disassembly of the binary file.
"${binary}": This is a placeholder indicating the path or name of the binary file you want to disassemble. You need to replace "${binary}" with the actual path or name of the binary file you want to analyze.

Overall, this command disassembles the given binary file, showing the assembly instructions and their corresponding memory addresses. It allows you to inspect the low-level code of the binary, which can be helpful for debugging, reverse engineering, or analyzing program behavior.
