In this task, the job is to create a new empty file called "output.txt" of size 0 bytes
and an empty directory called "docs". This should be done twice: once "here", i.e. in the current working directory and once in the filesystem root.

f <- file("output.txt", "w")
close(f)
 
# it may fails and the exact syntax to achieve the root
# changes according to the operating system
f <- file("/output.txt", "w")
close(f)
 
success <- dir.create("docs")
success <- dir.create("/docs")
