* To exclude a directory when using the find command in Unix-like operating systems, you can use the -prune option
* in combination with the -o operator and the -path option. Example:
* /home/kronos → The directory where you want to start searching.
* /home/kronos/Documents → The subdirectory you want to exclude from the search.
* -prune → This tells find to stop descending into directories that match the specified path.
* -o → This is a logical OR operator. It allows you to specify additional conditions for the search.
* -name "*.iso" → This specifies the pattern of the files you are looking for (replace "file_pattern" with your actual file name or pattern).
* -print → This tells find to print the pathnames of the files that match the specified criteria.
