   3.1 Adding Tasks

   Tutors suddenly bombarding you with assignments and you can’t keep track of it? :no_mouth: Let Duke help you!

   There are 3 different types of tasks you can add: todo, deadline and event tasks.

   todo task: todo <task name>

   • Add a task to be done with no specific timing.
     

deadline task: deadline <task name> /by <DD/MM/YYYY HH:mm>

• Add a task with a deadline and time.
  

event task: event <task name> /at <DD/MM/YYYY HH:mm>

• Add an event with its corresponding date and time.

Change it with the delete instruction.
