Description

Ls-l

Long list output file information in this directory (note the file here, different from the general file, may be the directory, links, device files, etc.)

grep "^-"

In this case, the long list output information is filtered, only the general files are preserved, if only the directory is ^d

Wc-l

statistics output information of the number of lines, because it has been filtered to only the general file, so the statistical results are general file information of the number of lines, and because one line of information corresponds to a file, so that is the number of files.
