Hello all, very inexperienced Linux user here (using an Asus chromebook):
I'm trying to launch an installation (Pycharm) from my Downloads folder (trying to get started with some Python practice!) At the same time, I'm trying to figure out Linux. So far, I've opened a terminal and learned/practiced several commands while using advice i've read online, but I can't seem to get anywhere! I've tried:
a)
cd ~/Downloads
and received 'No such file or directory exists'
b)
So I've pwd and I know that i'm in the directory-> home/[my user name]
c) I tried "ls -la" to see if it's just hidden, but I just see

Can you advise? Thanks for your patience, etc.
