UNIX man command to find list of man sections

0 votes
I'm working on a lab that is supposed to help us better navigate the command line on a Linux system, but I'm getting stuck on man pages.

We are supposed to use the man command to find a list of the man page sections, adn I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I've tried entering. But that doesn't give me any information on the individual sections. I've also tried looking on Google to find what command I should use, but no luck there either.

Can anybody point me in the right direction?
