title: How do i delete directory's in Linux (without first deleting the files inside)
body: <p>I just gotten a Raspberry Pi for Christmas and I wanted to delete some built in programs because I wanted to make a Linux server for home use. So far I had to do this all the time using the terminal because to delete the files, you had to use root.</p>
  
  <pre><code>rm ./files/*
  rmdir files  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there any way I can use <code>rmdir</code> command when there are files in it?</p>
