How to create a link to a directory [closed]

Question

How to create the link 

xxx to /home/jake/doc/test/2000/something/?

Assume an xxx is created under the /home/jake and you're currently in /home/jake. When you do cd xxx, you directly go to 

/home/jake/doc/test/2000/something/.

Answer 1

The symbolic or soft link (files or directories, more flexible and self documenting)

#     Source                             Link

ln -s /home/jake/doc/test/2000/something /home/jake/xxx

Hard link (files only, less flexible and not self documenting)

#   Source                             Link

ln /home/jake/doc/test/2000/something /home/jake/xxx
