[Ubuntu] How to delete the entire contents of a directory

rmdir -r cannot be used

If you try to use rmdir -r, which is often used on CentOS etc.

$ rmdir -r test/
rmdir: invalid option -- 'r'
Try 'rmdir --help' for more information.

I get angry if I don't have the option.

Execution method

I settled down by deleting the contents of the folder → deleting the directory.

Delete the contents of the folder (including the directory)

$ rm -r ./*

Delete directory

$ rmdir test/
