The Linux locate command reads one or more databases prepared by **updatedb**
The Linux locate command reads one or more databases prepared by updatedb- locate writes file names matching at least one of the PATTERNs to standard output, one per line.
- PATTERNs can contains globbing characters. If any PATTERN contains no globbing characters, locate behaves as if the pattern were *PATTERN*.
- By default, locate does not check whether files found in database still exist; locate can never report files created after the most recent update of the relevant database.
