How do I add cron job under Linux or UNIX like operating system?

Cron job are used to schedule commands to be executed periodically. You can setup commands or scripts, which will repeatedly run at a set time. Cron is one of the most useful tool in Linux or UNIX like operating systems. The cron service (daemon) runs in the background and constantly checks the /etc/crontab file, /etc/cron.*/ directories. It also checks the /var/spool/cron/ directory

crontab is the command used to install, deinstall or list the tables (cron configuration file) used to drive the cron daemon in Vixie Cron. Each user can have their own crontab file, and though these are files in /var/spool/cron/crontabs, they are not intended to be edited directly. You need to use crontab command for editing or setting up your own cron jobs.

The sixth field is the command to run, and all commands run as the user who created the crontab How Do I Install / Create / Edit My Own Cronjobs?

$ crontab -e
