Tee command is used to store and view (both at the same time) the output of any other command.
Tee command writes to the STDOUT, and to a file at a time as shown in the examples below.
1. The following command (with the help of tee command) writes the output both to the screen (stdout) and to the file.
$ ls | tee <file>

$ ls | tee "a <file>
You can also write the output to multiple files as shown below:
$ ls | tee <file1 file2 file3>
