I'm not sure, but I think Lorenza is right because redirecting the error output to /dev/null ensures it is discarded.

I'm going to have to disagree with Deja on this one. Option A is the clearest and most reliable approach.

Hmm, option D looks interesting. Sending both streams to the same place is an elegant solution.

I'm pretty sure option E is the correct answer here. Redirecting stdout to the file and stderr to /dev/null is the way to go.

That makes sense, it's important to separate the normal output from the error output.

Option A is correct. It redirects the error output to /dev/null while writing the normal output to a file.
