The command "users" is a Linux/Unix command that is used to display a list of currently logged-in users on the system. When you execute the "users" command, it will provide you with a list of usernames, separated by spaces, representing users who are currently logged in to the system.

For example, if you run the "users" command and it returns "user1 user2", it means that "user1" and "user2" are currently logged in to the system.

This command is typically helpful for system administrators who need to monitor user activity or check for any unauthorized access.
