We're almost done!

To search the entire file of words, use:
/ - to start the search, and to go to next
? - to go to previous
n - advance forward
N - advance backwards

We can use this to search a long file for a variable name or any words.

To move to the next occurence of the word that your cursor is under, use:
* - move to the next occurence
# - move to the previous occurence

Put your cursor over the move word, and hop over to the previously occuring command.
