3\. **cron**  \
The "cron" system function is used to schedule an action/function execution at a specific time. It can be used to create a one-time executable or a recurring executable. You can schedule a function to be executed at a particular time of the day weekly, hourly or only once.

You start with the command "cron" which gives you three functions:\
a. **Delete a Cron job:** Used to delete already scheduled jobs.  \
b. **List user Cron jobs:** Used to list scheduled jobs of the user.  \
c. **Schedule a Cron Job:** There are multiple ways to schedule jobs on YellowAnt.
