Objective

Learner can redirect output to a file, append without overwriting, and understand redirection operators

Mission

Your shift's running incident log at ~/documents/incident-log.txt already has entries from earlier. New findings from ~/downloads/scan-results.txt need to be appended to it — without erasing prior entries or modifying the source file
