Using the Top command with ps and kill

[AdamNagy]

For my Computing Controlled Assessment I am looking into some of the basic commands for the Linux OS Debian. For the final question I have to write a short essay on using the top command along with ps and kill to investigate misbehaving system. The question asks to use help from PC specialists (or just any experienced Debian users). So if anyone could give any information on how a specialist could use these commands and anything helpful in general on these commands. Remember I'm here for information and not an answer. Thanks

For the final question I have to write a short essay on using the top command along with ps and kill to investigate misbehaving system.

These should help:
top Command
ps Command
kill Command

Also note that commands are case sensitive, as are file paths and names.
