It should be to run the `hostname` command, nothing more.

Ironically that command is used to set the hostname but not read it.
Next you'll tell me you don't even know what `uname` does!

Everyone is learning something here, no need to insult someone because they might not know something you know. I bet you don't know something he knows.
